I mounted my whisker pole outside the stanchions and while the spinnaker pole took up so much room on the foredeck, I didn't like it outside the stanchions. You can see in this picture that there's no place to step.
I got the idea to leave the aft end of the pole in the deck chock and only hang the front of the pole from the stanchion. It had the added benefit of making the two poles parallel when viewed from the side.
In this pic, you can see that I left the foreward deck chock. Just moving the pole that few inches gave me much more room to walk around.
