Manatee, I've just purchased a couple of rod holders to install on railing stanchions for mounting our beach umbrella. It's a handy, quick way to shade a seating area if the boat's orientation and the sun are not cooperating. We've used this umbrella for many years mounting on the binnacle of the sailboat even when sailing (downwind in the Chesapeake, with the boom prevented from gybing).
I am, by the way, making a light davit for my ease or my wife's capacity in launching and retrieving her kayak from its storage place on the flybridge 'wings'.
