Paul McManus has taken the following photos of his whisker pole installation on a US Spars mast rig. He included a copy of the purchase invoice for the parts at the bottom of the page.
The following information on the pole is summarized from Forespar website:

Part No. | Collapsed Length | Weight | Max. Working Length | Tubing Diameters |
401106 | 10′ 1.750″ | 17 lb. | 18′ 2.130″ | 2.000″ & 2.500″ |
The 10′ to 18′ working lengths compare to a typical 15′ for our regulation spinnaker poles. The track, sliding ring, lines and storage is virtually identical to my setup for a 15′ spinnaker pole on the earlier Zspar rig.
