If you are sailing downwind,
If you are sailing downwind, you can greatly improve both your speed and control by using a whisker pole. In this Part 1 video, I walk you through why a whisker pole is helpful for a sailboat and how to choose the right one for your boat. With footage from our 44 foot cruising sailboat Sea Rose, you’ll learn about the many benefits of a whisker pole. I also describe, using the example of poles from Forespar and Selden, the many design options, sizing and stowage considerations so you can make the right decision for your boat and type of sailing. Be sure to also check out Part 2 in this series, where I explain step-by-step how to properly install a whisker pole, and all the details on how to actually deploy the pole for downwind sailing.
