I got one for my 35-1 with a 145%, and am really happy with it. Best thing for cruising, especially light air (ie, Long Island Sound), not to mention an essential item for non-spinnaker racing. I didn't go for the mast-mount, and it can be a bear to get the pole set. Once you've clipped in the outboard end it takes a strong person at the mast to extend, plus good coordination with the sheets. If you don't mind the windage I think the mast mount would be great for cruising.

Not sure about the asym, would you use it to windward as with the genoa, or to leeward?

I'm considering a Forespar Line Control whisker pole (LC 13-24) for my C&C 37+. I'd like to use the mast mounted storage option as well. I would be poling out a 145% furling headsail and an asymmetric spinnaker. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks,
