Rick,
Looking at the power pole righting system. Will you provide better drawings/pictures of the stopper knot and how it attaches to the pole. Is the righting line permanently attached to the pole, or is it stowed in the conventional tramp pocket and attached after capsize?

the stopper knot is on the line itself. Imagine a triangle from the end of the pole to one cross beam to the other beam, then back to the pole. At each beam end there is a loop that the righting line passes thru. All the stopper knot is used for is to hike the pole to angle for more leverage....just make sure the ends of the line wrap around the pole, then are tied to the strap.
