spinnaker. The end-for-end method, with the topping lift and downhaul attached to the centre of the spinnaker pole, is most suitable for boats up to 25 feet in length. Another end-for-end
method, with the topping lift at the centre of the pole and Seldén aluminium spinnaker poles give you fast and safe spinnaker handling. All the fittings have well-rounded
edges to prevent personal injury and damage to equip-
ment. The extrusions are lightweight and very durable,
and are fitted with pole savers to shield the pole against
damage from forestay and shrouds. New composite end fittings are available for our Ø 48-Ø 96 poles. These fittings are normally used for
end-for-end gybing but can be used for vertical pole sto-
wage and dip gybing as well. Our traditional aluminium fittings for dip gybing are available for the Ø 72-Ø 111 sections. Composite spinnaker pole fittings A lightweight composite fitting for fast and easy spinnaker handling. Stainless, spring loaded plunger. These fittings
can be used for end-for-end gybing as well as vertical
pole stowage and dip gybing. For the Ø 72-Ø 96 aluminium poles and Ø 76-Ø 88 car-bon poles, we use a stainless chafe guard in the opening.
These fittings are available with or without trip trigger
function.Spinnaker poles with composite fittings come with Dyneema-core bridles for topping lift and downhaul.
Can be secured in place without removing the fittings
from the tube, which also makes it easier to change or
adjust the bridles.
the downhaul attached to the outboard end, is best for masthead rigged boats (max. 33 ft) and fractionally rigged boats (max. 40 ft). The third method, dip pole, is suitable for larger boats. The fourth way, twin pole arrangements, is recommended for
yachts ranging from 40 feet and up-wards. Twin poles make it much easier and safer to gybe with the spinnaker on a big yacht. Section data
