VisiCarbon Pro safety flag install

Well after looking at a few pictures of this weekend and realizing how small I am out there in my low profile yak, I thought I better get a little more visibility.  I had been using a spare fluorescent orange spare paddle but how dorky is that? lol.  Besides it never stayed in place.

So I ordered the flag and they immediately shipped it.  In fact I got a call from them at 6am answering a few questions I emailed to them.  So no problem with the response time! 

I ordered the Scottie mount and it was a quick 15 minute install.  Drill a hole 1/8 inch smaller than what it says.  Push it through so its basically already watertight.  Rivet it in.  Done.  I didn't even have to since I could have wedged it into one of my flush mount pre installed rod holders.  But I wanted more height and further out of the way.  But you could easily transfer it to a rental kayak for example.

Looks great.  Light seems plenty bright.   I wish my other set of lights would come in. I can't wait to try this total set up at night!

I asked them about a lengthening the pole and they were like "no problem".  Great service great response time so far! 

Personally I think the flag could be bigger.  Maybe I will velcro another lighter piece on to it. 

Will update after I take it out on the water!

Nice to see a good writeup on it.  The VisiCarbon guys are going to be sponsoring at least one of our events this year.

What other set of lights are you waiting for?

I'm waiting for some Attwood underwater LED light. Combine them with my drop down lights for night fishing.

I have to give the Yak Attack guys that make the Visicarbon Pro a prost, I sent them an email about increasing the height of my flag, and they emailed me back wanting to know my shipping address so they could send me the needed parts, FREE.  That's what I call customer service. They make a great product too.

It's official.  I'd like to welcome Yakattack (http://www.yakattack.us/), makers of the Visicarbon as official sponsors of both the ORC and the AOTY.

Nice... I certainly wouldn't mind being a little more visible at times.  These will make great prizes.

WOOOHOOOO!!!!
