With winter only stubbornly fading away in northern climates, pre-season rigging time is at a premium.

Tank Talk is going to feature a series of articles on all things spinnaker pole. Hopefully, some of this information will speed up double pole conversions for those looking to make the change before the sailing season.

Lastly, we'll have a look at the future of spinnaker poles in the class and if in fact we should secure them to the hull instead of the spars.
