That does look pretty nice. I'm still looking for a flag pole that will mount to my tower, but haven't found it yet. I looked through the linked site, but didn't see anything either...

Use a rail mount, maybe.

It should fit a flag pole to a tube on your Tower.

Since installing the tower, the flag pole gets wrapped in the rope where it is located in the picture below now. I whould need a 2" rail mount to put it on the tower and they only have up to 1½".

The current mount and pole is similar as pictured above although not quite as nice. It is the deck mount for the Magma BBQ that doubles as a flag pole mount.

Ask your tower maker/builder for the right mount.

I did not see, feel, heft, and fall in love with - anything except what I photoed (sp) originally in this thread. I did not see their rail mount at this time.

Thanks.

You should heft one in person.

Nice.

Too bad you need to get a mount from your tower builder.

Maybe I need another place to mount the flag using that mount and pole?

Nice! I would like this mount for my boat so it would be flush when not in use.

Hotbyte, I used that mount for mine and love it. Drilling hole at the correct angle was tricky but it looks and works great. I have a 1" acrylic rod that I use as a flagpole and secure it into the base with a 7/8" o ring. It will not come out unless you pull it out. I think it was around $25 for the mount.

Deepv -

I have the same issue with my flag pole... I have a flag where the anchor light pole is supposed to go, but the rope wraps around it when attached to the tower. I actually tore it up last weekend putting a tube on the back of the boat, so I'm definitely in the market now for a tower mounted flag. I saw one on the lake last weekend, but I didn't get close enough to see the mount. It might just have been zip tied up there, which is something I'm considering until I can find a good mount.
