If you are in a phrf region that doesn't limit the whisker pole to the J
measurement it may well be faster to go dead downwind poled out.
Since under LakevMichigan phrf we are limited to J I have had success with
gybing downwind. BUT, it requires that you know and apply your Polars to the

Hi Rick,
For what its worth, Forespar gives whisker pole sizing info for C:
http://www.forespar.com/products/sail-spinnaker-pole-size-guide.shtml
In PHRF Long Island Sound, the max whisker pole length is equal to your
LP measurement. If you use your J-length spinnaker pole instead, PHRF
LIS gives you
Hi Rick,
I am not familiar with the rule of thumb for optimum whisker pole length,

the geometry is setting the pole at right angles to the boat, and the jib holds
a 60 degree angle
at the tack.
For light air dead run I set the jib at 90 degrees to the centerline to

I've found the spin pole is too short for use as a whisker pole even when
I have both symm and asymm spinnakers flying from a pole. I assume
you mean to connect a guy to the spinnaker tack and pole that out.
The symm is better from 120 AWA to 180 AWA, the asymm starts to
work as well tighter than 120 AWA.

The pole could only be used to attach the tack of the sail while the clew

To answer your question it can be done. On two occasions we have flown an asym
off the pole. In both instances the boats involved had both symmetric
spinnakers and asymmetric declared.
One time the skipper on a Frers 33 (not mine) decided the next leg was a reach
and opted for the asym
