Does anyone have information on where I might find a used telescoping wisker pole I can use with my 150 Geni on my 1987 Ericson 28?

Might try this guy, he's in NY, but the add's a year old and the pole might be too short. Might be worth a call though.

Using a whisker pole on a 28 is going to be a chore

Sven,

The pole would need to be 9' or 10' extending to 14' or 15'. Not sure which is the manufactured (Selden) size, but it is one or the other.

Sleather,

Thanks for the info. I will check it out.

Sleather,

I checked out the information you provided. As you might have suspected the pole was long gone. My search continues.

E28 - Wisker Pole

My search has ended! Thanks to Mark (Annapolis E27), Polonius now has a Wisker Pole. I was able to stop by Mark's last Wednesday night while on a return trip from NC to pick up the Wisker Pole. Thanks again Mark! Sorry for the late arrival and short visit.
