Joel, The OEM setup on our boat clipped the front of the pole to a large ring on the pulpit and the aft end went onto a rail mounted SS toggle. The toggle was missing when I bought the boat and it was sail tied to the toerail, crew complained when they sat on the rail over the pole. I leater learned to rig the pole to the mast regardless, as it stopped the genoa sheets fouling the pole car. I mounted a Forespar deck chock I don't like, to the deck to store the pole closer to the chainplates. It has a dildo that fits inside the pole end. I think a simpler SS ring would work better and never catch a line? We make it a habit to point the dildo down when the pole is off the chock, so it doesn't catch a line, but I hope to fab something better. The chock allows easier hiking on the rail.
A don't like the stanchion mounted pole holder as the end sticks out past the max beam and can become a problem and catch things when docking.

Just something else to trip over. Has anyone used the rail-mounted chocks? Any other solution (other than the mast)?
