Guest Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Try Ulrich Aluminium in Penrose, if they dont have it there is a little Asian Importer down the road that does over length tube as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Marshy 30 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Ullrich and Nalco are the two places to go, Its just standard Alloy Tube. Think from memory the 88 Poles are Ullrich tube UA1252 which is 65mm OD with a 3mm wall, http://www.ullrich.co.nz/extruded_round_tube3.php Which you buy in 5 metre lengths and they take a slightly shaven in diameter 2.5" Forespar spinnaker pole end from www.kzmarine.co.nz Class rules are "The overall length of the pole, including fittings, shall be not more than 3,530 mm when measured horizontally from the forward most face of the mast. The weight of the pole and fittings shall be not less than 3.5 kg." Give me a yell if you need more info or want a price for one made with bridles etc. Marshy Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Thanks guys, Ullrich have quoted 165 + for a 5M section. Link to post Share on other sites
Marshy 30 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Yeah that sounds about right, If you are friendly with a local rigger see if you can use their account to buy it and pay cash at pickup. Usually get about 30-40% off with trade at Ullrich from memory... Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 You need to find a friend and do a cash sale at trade. Sounds on the high side. Link to post Share on other sites
