I don't have a set of F16 rules and I'm too lazy to search them out, When I measure my spin pole, do I lay it flat on the ground, no prebend, and measure from one end to the tack block, or the extra inch or so to the end of the pole? OR, do I rig it on the boat, prebend it, measure straight line from the fwd beam to the pole tip, or go over the hump, and is it to the pole end or the tack block? I know the distance is 3.5M, (11'5.04
) but from what to what, and pre-bent or not?
I need to know before I do any cutting! <img src=

No prebend and it is the length of the POLE.
Plus the distance, if any, from the aft end of the pole to the leading edge of the mast.
Thank you both.
I am pretty sure you measure from the forward surface of the main beam to the exit point on the pole tip. Maximum 3500mm..??
