Trogear Bowsprit Through Hull Installation Manual
Congratulations on your purchase of the Trogear Bowsprit
which can be installed on most sailboats. The through
hull installation is not a complicated process, but it does require careful measurements. Please read the
instructions
thoroughly
first, and if in doubt contact us or your boat rigger with any questions.
Keep in mind that these instructions present the basic process. As each boat is designed differently, your boat may
require specific installation modifications. Again, please consult your rigger if in any doubt, and you may decide that it is
best to have your rigger install the Bowsprit for you.
NOTE:
If you are not able to install our bowsprit using this method, our side mounts or deck mounting solution might be
right for your yacht.
Custom options are also possible and we can work with you to devise a suitable method for your
yacht.
See our website or contact us for details.
