Big Pimpin’

Paul Cronin, a naval architect, boat builder and filmmaker ordered a Trogear Bowsprit for his Archambault 31.
Paul wanted to keep his rating the same so it was built to match the SPL dimension of the class legal oversized spinnaker pole. Coming in at under 2 ft. long it is a short but mighty addition to Paul’s downwind arsenal!
Paul documented his approach to the through hull installation and rigging. They are part of his “In The Boat Shop Series” offering step-by-step videos showing how to install gear, repair and fix parts, tips & tricks, and more.
Check out his videos – he does very fine work!
