RE: [Cal_Boats] Spin pole/Gin pole
Hi, Kevin. Spin pole is 10 feet. Is that enough? I wouldn’t do it because a spin pole is da*n expensive and could be damaged.

Subject: [External] [Cal_Boats] Spin pole/Gin pole
When I put the new deck and beam in my Cal 25 I also installed a hinged mast base so I could step without assistance. Would my Spinnaker pole be adequate to use as a gin pole? Just need to build a bracket to attach to the mast/base. Otherwise I'll use a wooden beam that I can clamp on the mast.
Thanks for your help!
