Flag socket angle

[Lark40]

I'm planning on installing a flag pole on the stern of my 22' cuddy. Looks like a 16 X 24 flag is the correct size, maybe with a 30" pole.<br /><br />But, I see ads for both 90 and also 45 degree flag sockets. I like to see a flag flying perpendicular in full breeze, but could use some advice on what angle is "correct" (or is it simply personal taste)?

I agree with the personal taste.You and I like the perpendicular.So far it is 2-0.

Arrgh! I'm going to put a flag pole socket on my stern to fly the skull and crossbones

, but I'm looking for a flush mount socket with around 65 to 80 degrees of rake... Just leaning back a little off of perpendicular...<br /><br />If any of you know where I can find a flush mount socket with that approximate degree of rake, would ya please let me know.. I be very greatful...
