Bowsprit + spinnaker

We have already around 4.5ft bowsprit on our boat the roller furler runs towards the front of it.



We would like to fly a spinnaker and theres a bit of stuff in the way so would probably have to put a pole out....?????


Anyone know how you would set something up like that with already the bowsprit out so far?


Have any photos?



Thanks

I have that kind of situation and I think about a 2-3' pendent would work.

Bowsprit is for gennaker.
Spinnaker is used with a pole, not bowsprit.

What kind of spinnaker? Symetrical or asymmetrical?
