For: Baby stay - attach snap shackle at base with bungee to pull it to base of mast when disengaged. Use block and tackle on baby stay for adjustments (maybe 4:1, not sure yet). I think you want to use a pelican style hook designed for rigging. The baby stay can likely load up pretty good and

Just one other thing for novice spinnaker handling, the philosophy of gybing. The chute does NOT come across the boat; the boat turns UNDER the chute. Visualize the chute traveling pretty much straight down the course while the boat turns port/starboard beneath it. If your driver and crew develop

Hi Andrew There is a 33-3 beside us at our marina. Their baby stay is on a track and they always have the baby stay at the mast side of the track and loose so that it is not in the way for racing. Their pole is set up with a mast end and a clew end so they always do dip pole gybes although o

Hi Andrew, I went the same route few years ago on my 1987 33-2 (Offshore spar mast on this vintage). First, you have a pole and a sym spin so you already have the « big $ items ». In my opinion you are on the good path. When we bought our boat we had no free flying sails. A good friend had an a

The local Schock 35's use a dip pole, it doesn't seem that difficult. That Baby Stay was the Bane of my Sym Spinnaker days - I am thinking, if this is a 33-2, you may have forward lower stays? If so, you should be able to pull enough prebend into your spar to not worry about the baby stay. If you

My 34 came spinnaker equipped. No matter what, the baby stay MUST be released and stowed back to the mast to allow for gybing and full aft pole trim. If your baby stay is permanently attached to a pad eye, then you will need to change end fitting for a releasing type. I have track wit
