Whisker poles come with the round mast end fitting. They vary by size of the pole and diameter of the mast. I carry two whisker poles on Audasea. Smaller one is 1 inch (too small) and larger 1 1/4" diameter at 6' to 12' is just right. Forespare with the spike end. The lexan fitting for that is probably Forespar #300025. West Marine catalog has about 10 options to chose from, again, depending on the size of your pole and mast. The one on my boat came installed, but is metal, not plastic. I also use it to anchor the clevis ends of both halyards when I drop the sails. That larger whisker pole is one of my favorite pieces of equipment. Anytime the wind goes aft of the beam, it's a big plus to get that out there. A lot better sail shape and they don't flog around as much in light air and chop from the powerboats.

Does anyone have a part number or size, etc. for the eye strap fitting for the mast end of a whisker pole for an M-17 mast?
