Ok
I've replaced several 9ft high posts, 4" × 4" into concrete. My gawd it nearly killed me removing the old posts. I've attached a photo of the posts set in postcrete.
Now they are in the same position as the ones I removed.
2ft of the posts are buried in 12" diameter holes.
I've measured 2.8m between the post 2 and post 3.
What is a safe distance between these posts or do I install another?
I will be installing another post between post 1 and 2. Not in the middle but on the point it flattens out so I can keep gravel board flat.

Do you think I need another post between post 2 and 3? Or is 2.8m OK?
It can get very windy here. Thanks
