We have a Sailfish 282 with Lee Junior wishbone side mounted riggers. We use a bly 12ft adjustable center rigger and actually put it in our center rod holder on the rack mounted to our hard top. By making it removable, it is easy for us to take it down and store it when we aren't fishing and need to clear some bridges. For us, the 30 degree bend was unnecessary and would just get in the way. At first we only extended between 8 and 10 ft, but redid rigging for the full 12ft. For us it works great.
