Dave,
Those all sound like worthy upgrades to an existing pole. It should look like new when you’re done. A small water-activated strobe is a good choice. If you could attach it part way up the pole, it would be great for visibility. If it’s too heavy, it may affect the ability of the pole to stay vertical. It all depends on the type of strobe (weight). The carabiner should have the whistle attached with a short leash. A small float might make them easier to find in the water. I’m thinking a key chain float might work.

Working through some refurb chores and am rehabilitating my Scotty MOB pole, fresh paint, new flag, replace or paint some of the UV damaged plastic on the float, add reflective tape. It lives in a tube mounted on the pushpit stanchion and is connected to a smallish ring buoy by around 75' of floating line. Am contemplating a strobe and whistle an possibly a carabiner so a tired swimmer can more easily tether to the entire assembly. Any thoughts on this? Thanks, Dave 33-2
