I installed my Vis Carbon pro on my Outback last week but have yet to use it on the water. I used a mighty mount and installed it on the Stbd side rear behind the cross bungee. I wanted to be far enough back so it would be well out of the way from my fishing poles and the rear cargo area. I am hoping to use it on Sat for the Dino party on the Willy, that is if I don't have to leave town again before that. There have been times during the late fall when it was getting dark and the bass fishing was great but I did not want to get ran over by a wake boat heading home. So the light will be a welcome addition, I will feel safer with it. Since I work on the river nothing makes me madder that almost running over a kayaker at night with no light on. During the summer I see it allot and inform the yaker that they are not visible from the pilot house even when your paying attention. Not necessarily the case with some pleasure boaters, half the time they are half lit up. Some people say ya but I have the right of way, or it was their fault because of their negligence. That does not matter when your the one getting run over, hard to use a mirage drive when your legs are missing. I will ask the guys when I am out on the river if they think that the flag is visible enough without the pole extension.

Great input!  It's nice having someone in your position amongst our ranks.

Something to keep in mind when mounting your Visicarbon.  You want it out of the way but you also want to be able to reach it to turn your light on/off.  It just needs to be close enough to seperate one joint and put it back.  The process is something like:
- Reach back and seperate one joint in the pole
- Guide the top half of your pole to a position where you can turn the light cap
- Turn On/Off
- Reach back and re-attach the top half of the pole to the bottom
