    Question about E30+ mast/spinnaker setup

    Length of spinnaker pole for E29

    I recently purchased an E29 with a spinnaker pole of about 13'. The PO thought that the pole may have come from a different boat and was likely too long. Any thoughts on what the length of a pole should be on an E29?

    Fellow E25+ sailors, I am looking for advice on where to mount a spinnaker pole ring on the mast. My 1981 25+ has neither ring nor track to which to attach the spinnaker pole that I bought primarily for wing and winging for club racing. Obviously would have more flexibility with a track, but...

    Spinnaker pole wanted for E-28 - Massachusetts

    I bought an 1988 E-28 last summer. It had been on the hard for 4 years and somewhere during that time the pole went missing. The PO was deceased and his wife had no idea where it may have gone. The boat came with a good spinnaker. Around a 12 foot pole will do.
