Strip: Propper Placement of Paddle Park *PIC*

[uI am just finishing up a 14 ft Auk for a boat to poke around in.
I have properly sized the day hatch (see below) and am contemplating installing some way to park the paddle to free up my hands for other things (again see below). My quandary is where is the best place to place it: Next to the cockpit, across the deck or diagonally across the fore deck. I am planning on a shock cord loop and a hook.
I look forward to replys from anyone who has had a good system as well as those who have not been pleased in what they have.
Thanks,
Bill
