Can anyone who has one of those spin kits on their H16 please tell me how long the pole is? (feet/inches please).

Thanks,

The original standard pole length is 9+ foot 2 inches.

Are you going to put that boat on the beach this season Eric?

Hmmm,
Possibly, how much was the cost to park on the beach (with and without sail membership)? I'd like to find a nearby launch that's not a pain in the ... to get in and out of.

Not totaly on topic, but then again not totaly off topic either, but I've got a question. When are spinnakers legal for racing on the 16's?

Webb,
I don't think spins are legal in the H16 class (?). I haven't got around to registering for a sanctioned regatta but would like to. I would confirm with your: local fleet, online class rules, or Matt M.

Kites can only be used in handicap racing. In one design racing no kites are allowed
