Whisker pole
I have a spinnaker pole on the boat but no spinnaker.
So I am making a light wooden whisker pole to boom out the genoa for running downwind.
Pole made from 4 lengths of quadrant glued together with the ends turned down to go in the fittings that clip on the mast and the genoa sheet.
One coat of varnish on, two more to go......
I think the old pole will find a home in the roof of the garage.
