Squib SPINNAKER POLE FITTINGS ETC

The vast majority of Squibs now use a single-ended flyaway pole system.

These fittings out-perform all others as components of a reliable and hassle-free system and we recommend them unconditionally.

The Fico pole end has jaws which open to the front, so the pole disengages the guy more easily when recovering the sail or gybing. This is a 'must have' for any self-launchuing pole syastem.

The 'Spiro' fitting is the original and the best. Now made with a much stronger bracket for the Squib. Smoothest, low profile shape and a ball/socket type link which engagespositively, relying on more than a tight piece of line for its strength and articulation.

Once you have sailed with an adjustable-length tiller extension you will not want to be without one. Shorten it to be convenient and safer in strong winds, extend it to sit forward for best trim and comfort in lighter breezes. This Ronstan extension is light, reliable and inexpensive.
