Spinnaker Pole; Fixing The Snuffer Ring And Shute - Nacra F20 Carbon Assembly & Rigging Manual

1.5. Spinnaker pole

1.5.1. Fixing the snuffer ring and shute

Step 1.
Slide the spinnaker shute through the snuffer ring.
Step 2.
Place the spinnaker pole horizontal. This means that all of the already moun-
ted fittings and blocks are on top and standing vertical.
Step 3.
Take the tape measure and place the snuffer ring 135 cm from the front of
the spinnaker pole. It is quite convenient to mark the 135 cm point on the
spinnaker pole with a pencil.
Step 4.
Make sure that the snuffer ring is facing slightly down on the spinnaker pole
and then drill two holes through the shute and spinnaker pole. The holes
should be about 5 cm from the front and rear of the snuffer ring (see pictu-
re).
Step 5.
Take the spinnaker shute together and place it in the snuffer ring. Then put
the snuffer ring bag around it. Just to keep it all together.
