Post Safety "Whip" Flag Poles
I just bought me a couple from Checkers Industrial Safelty Products is the place I was looking but ended up getting on off Ebay.

7' tall, different color fiberglass to choose from, $13.76 / each looks like free shipping too. www.checkersindustrial.com

I figured with the rides coming up it would be a good idea to remind people that a good safety flag can prevent a bad accident especially around blind corners etc.

this is a good point Coe...it would be a good idea if you have a flag or can get one to bring one to the SETX ride because there is going alot of people there and we have already had some accidents

Gator Tail and Pro Drive used to give them out their to Customers at the Poker Runs at Lake Fausse Pointe, but that run was stopped a couple years back due to some "issues"!

I just ordered 2 from ebay. $35 is cheap for a little piece of mind about my passengers and my safety.

Flags are required down here in the glades. I use a 10', 1/2" fiberglass pole and attach a flag to it with zip ties. Works much better than those thin fiberglass poles most places sell.

Post Re: Safety "Whip" Flag Poles
Anyone know what size pole will fit in a seat mount? Thinking about putting the flag on my bow where I have an in deck seat plug so I can put a chair on it... What size pole? I don't have my boat near me to measure can someone give me a number?

I like the Grainger one too, thanks for chimming in I'll run that one while on the open bay w/ no trees to worry about :D
