Looking for some advice on repair/replacing the spinnaker pole. I have a slight bend where the pole went into the forestay. It's still usable, but I want to replace the aluminum tubing or extrude it. I've heard Svendson's in Alameda can extrude. Else, any recommendations for purchasing tubing in the Bay Area would be helpful. Also, I think I've seen the instructions on making a shot gun release mechanism. Was that in the Express owners manual? - Thanks!
