Gary:

That's what started this whole thing. It looks like the standard righting pole setup is made for Nacras or a boat that does not have the tramp stretched under the front crossbar. I agree with you that you should not compromise your tramp; even if you did, how would you ever remove the tramp to either repair or replace it?

Start from the beginning of this thread; some people tie them and my friend Rick actually made a mount for the bar (I bet he would sell them for about $30). The righting pole is the only way you'll get that boat over by yourself. Shroud extenders require you to get on top of the boat to release the pins; Righting bags require a lot of muscle; Hawaiian systems only bungee the righting line under the boat so you can grab it easily.

Keep on staring at it; you'll come up with a solution. Do you have access to windsurfing masts?
