Hi Tom The 33-2 is very similar to our Frers 33 in rig size and most everything else. We do end for end. The 33-2 that docks beside us has a pole with a mast end fitting so must do dip pole. Their foredeck person has sailed with us and says he would prefer that the 33-2 had end for end capability.
The chute on our 33 and yours gets difficult to gybe in over 15 knots with a single set of sheets. There can be a lot of pressure on the pole when attempting to connect it to the mast doing end for end. Many 33-2 and Frers 33 use separate sheets and guys in over 15 knots true. We are contemplating that as well but do not like the extra lines/confusion in the cockpit. Dip pole may be another option when the wind gets up … not sure.
