I agree with Dwight, if I had only one pole, it would be the spin pole,
spinnaker or not, far more practical, adjustable, and stronger.....and
in a breeze, the 32 can handle stronger.

That does not matter if you have a spinnaker...use your jib as a
spinnaker, use the pole topping lift, the downhaul and jib sheet as
you would if you were flying a kite...no guy in this case...the kite
works best to weather and the main sail is best to leeward...the
leading edge of the kite just beginning to luff, hard to see on the
jib because it is attached to the forestay but never the less the same
thing happens...trim the sails and steer the boat to keep it that way
going downwind...you have a rather narrow angle to steer but if you
get it right and your crew trims your sails right and you learn to
feel your boat you will leave your competition behind, believe me you
will...so if white sail racing is what you are about, try what I
suggest and learn to do it good...that could make a big difference in
SOG for your boat...it has for all of the C&C designs that I have sailed
