OK, I'm a little confused now . Maybe it is because I have a Nacra, so the beams are straight. Also, I think with the shape of my hulls, I would be ok rigging the pole right at the dolphin striker. I'm just not very convinced that the pole will be enough for me to right the boat. I flipped it on dry land yesterday to do some mast head work and it felt pretty darn heavy coming back up. I'm not sure I could right it in the water, even with a pole.
