Thanks all! My pulpit also has a welded ring. I clipped the forward end of the pole to it and bought a used stanchion mounted chock at Bacon's for $10. The aft end of the pole is even with the rubrail so it is not a docking hazard. The aft deck fitting came off in a couple minutes. Epoxied the holes.
One major tripping hazard eliminated, one deck fitting left to remove.
