your assumption is correct. The spreader arms are the same and are shortened for the Taipan to meet the class restrictions. I understand that the arms were set shorter on the T 4.9 to reduce damage to the jib on the sloop rig.



From my experience the adjustability of the Protors offers far more performance gains than the fixed glass arms.
