Re: [C320-list] C320-list Digest, Vol 5075, Issue 1

[MICHAEL RAUH via C320-list]

I use my whisker pole when running downwind with my Genoa. I keep the cars well aft and the pole is just in front of the forward shroud.

I would not put the pole between the shrouds. A sudden change in heading to avoid another boat or an obstacle could be a real problem if the pole was between shrouds.
