Analyst Review
The spinnaker pole is a crucial component for controlling different types of sailboats. They push the spinnaker out to windward, increasing its exposure to the wind and avoiding the disturbed wind behind the main sail, thus, controlling the spinnaker trim, as well as adjusting the clew height using the lift (uphaul) and kicker (downhaul).
Furthermore, key players are implementing various strategies such as business expansion, product development, collaboration and partnerships, to strengthen their market position and to improve the product portfolio. For instance, in June 2021, Allen Brothers announced that it has been working on some major projects for marine industry, which include manufacturing of new tapered mast and pole for the Dragon Fleet.
