That's me in Jim's video. I'm glad I took his advice and mounted it weak-side. You will have more range of motion with your dominant arm if you do so.

Can you mount it to your rail? I would not want to go too far forward or it will be harder to put the line in the roller. But too far back and you are pulling laterally instead of front to back. I tried for a balance to where I was able to use more than just arms to pull, like engaging your legs and core when paddling.
