Spinnaker chute

Jonathan Daniel All Messages By This Member #120 Hi all, another request for help! I notice that some of the later Anglo Marine Wanderers have a spinnaker chute in the foredeck. Is there a template available for this so it can be retrofitted? I know it will be a big job (winter project) but it should make spinnaker handling when sailing with the children a lot more friendly! I'm thinking I can take a pattern off the foredeck after covering it with release agent, and build some kind of curved surround that will then drop in place when the hole is cut in the foredeck. Also is there a sock behind it, or does the spinnaker just go into the void underneath? As always, any assistance vey much appreciated. Jonathan Daniel

Mike Hamilton All Messages By This Member #122 Hi Johnathan Ian Porter used to sell a kit to retrofit the chute in the older Anglo Marine boats.? No sock is used, so you may need to smooth inside the foredeck to stop snagging and tearing the spinnaker. Good luck with the job.??

John Sharples 1646 All Messages By This Member #123 Crew (children) will still need to put the pole in the spinnaker and change it to other side when gybing etc. It's also hoisted/dropped by the helm (at least in my boat) while trying to steer and control mainsheet. I've derigged mine as it's too much hassle. Give me assymetric any day John 1646 John Sharples toggle quoted message Show quoted text On Sun, 27 Mar 2022, 21:46 Jonathan Daniel via , <jdaniel1000=[email protected]> wrote: Hi all, another request for help!

Jonathan Daniel All Messages By This Member #124 Thanks all. I did consider going the whole hog and fitting an asymentric as I'm not racing anyway. Maybe one day!
