    I set mine up in the middle of the boat and run two bungee cords of front and back to keep it from blowing away when cranking or I'll move it up front for rigging still using the bungee cords.

    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    Bought my Sportsbrella XL from Dick's Sporting Goods 3-4 years ago.
    Installed another boat seat 3/4" base(female) on deck.Used pvc pipe mated to an old 3/4" extension bottom (male) to use as net or umbrella holder.
    Poke around on CDC/search to find a bunch of other umbrella mounting options.....(EZ-Poler ,pvc,and several others)

    Academy Sports sells them, you will have to find them yourself more than likely. I asked if they had them when I bought one there last summer. Guy rounded up 3 other and employees after a good huddle up they all just decided, nope we don't stock those. So I did some browsing and we found them on the very back wall, needless to say a few folks were embarrassed.. just kidding they could have cared less

    For the longline trollers out there, I usually just stick it in the front seat base and run two lines forward to my bow cleats and two aft to rod holder bases. Bringing it much father back gets in my way trolling so when it gets super hot I'll crawl up in the front deck and troll backwards with my iPilot in the boat. The wings get in my way when landing a fish solo on a 16' PST so I keep them rolled up almost always.

    If fishing from the front deck rigging or pushing I'd be looking into one of Gene's (EZPoleHolder) umbrella brackets.
