Abstract
A sailing vessel includes a hull having a mast supported thereon in a vertical direction from the hull and a spinnaker pole support mounted to the hull forward of the mast. A pair of spinnaker poles are movably attached to the spinnaker pole support with each spinnaker pole having fully open and retracted positions and being spring biased towards an open position. Each spinnaker pole can be retracted against the spring bias from an open to a closed position and supported in any position therebetween. A spinnaker sail is attached between the mast and the pair of spinnaker poles so that the spinnaker can be trimmed, jibed or headed up to a beam reach with a pair of spinnaker poles. A pair of cords attached to the spinnaker pole allows for the remote control of the spinnaker poles relative to the spinnaker pole support.
