I hang mine from the lower lifeline, mid ships, using a loop of light line looped on a stanchion and a second that slides along the lifeline at an appropriate location, which allows for length adjustment. I wrapped additional line around the stanchion as a cushion so there isn't metal to metal contact. Can't post a picture right now because I folded it in half during a race, when we were knocked down and the subsequent roundup backed the poled out genoa and folded the pole back over the shrouds.

I know that West Marine has brackets that attach to the stanchions and you then mount the pole in them. I used them on my C34.
