Not sure what else to call it, that little red thing in the base that allows the rigger to stand straight up and not fall over.Now that l've made what l'm talking about clear ( l hope), I'm curious as to how many people actually use it when travelling or? . For myself, since l put on the swivel bases l never use them, I just swivel the boom to the stern. Of course l can see using them without a swivel base, for travel etc., but does anyone use them with the swivel base, say for getting the boom etc. out of the way when playing a fish.
