Forespar® offers "customized" poles built to specific dimensions, and also "kit" poles in which both ends are left loose to allow the marine dealer, rigger or yachtsman to finish the pole himself. End fittings and tubing are available separately for those who wish to assemble poles to their own specifications.
The length of your spinnaker pole is determined by the yachts "J" measurement. This is the straight line distance from the front of the mast at deck level to the headstay. The "J" measurement is available from your sailplan, or you can contact Forespar® and we'll be able to assist you in determining the proper length.
The "kit" lengths that are shown on the following pages are the maximum we recommend for each tubing diameter. However, oversized poles are available.
