Any chance you can post a picture of both end caps? New and old, for visual comparison?

I sailed at the Brant Beach Worlds two years ago and these are the endcaps that were on those boats. They worked fine, but is seems like a real nuisance to have different caps on the top and bottom spars. Dealers need to keep more inventory and you have to know which cap to order. Fortunately the “classic style” seem to last forever so buying new ones isn’t often required.The attached picture is from the Bonaire Worlds that is starting up. Everyone gets a complete new bot to sail. As I thought, LP is supplying a different type of end cap vs what we have been used to. The end cap on the left is on the lower spar, is flat, and has room for a line to go through multiple times. The upper spar cap is like the one I linked to above, and looks to have room for just one line. Why LP changed, and why they feel the need to put different caps on the upper and lower spars are both open questions.
