It just looks right! I'm moving mine from the std stern rail to the centerline of the transom.

Ironically, the mount on BlueJ was on the centerline, enabled by a split backstay and wire lifelines across the transom. But the base would interfere with the tiller extender that I would fold back when I drive with the tiller between my legs during spin maneuvers. So I moved it. As the vhf mast was on starboard, I went port.

Those boats sure look symmetrical like that. It’s a good look.

Canadian Power Squadron? If you have the U.S. ensign flying from your spreader halyard you better be a Canadian visiting U.S. waters! Where they fly their Maple Leaf is of no concern to an American. American sailboaters have 3 choices for the national ensign - 2/3 the mainsail leech, center stern, starboard stern. And get a big one.
