[quote=Andinista][quote]I have the Murray's righting pole setup with a wind surfer mast for a pole, but it's not long enough to get enough leverage to right a Tornado, (IMHO) so I took it off the boat. If you make it long enough, then it will drag in the water unless it is telescoping and collapsed when not in use.
Since a wind surfer mast is tapered, it does not make an easy project for a telescoping righting pole.

If you start from the fact that it has to be hinged to the beam, I can see why you think it has to be telescopic. My righting pole is longer than beam to beam distance but i store it under the tramp close to one hull, no problem with its length.[/quote]
