Whisker Pole Length

[c14_simon]

I recently bought a Catalina 14.2 (new) and I have discovered that the whisker pole that I purchased with the boat is way to long.
Does anyone know what the class regulations are with regard to the correct length? I would like to cut it to size.

Thanks,

Simon

Pole length

It's 7 feet, 8 inches, eye to eye. (PS, longer is NOT better, as you've found out on your own.) (PPS, all this stuff is in the Capri 14.2 Handbook.)
