Bow cleat $%&* @#$%*
Author Last Post

Two Observations:

  1. Bill Hawk is a very smart person :-)
  2. Totally agree with Zeke on the Pop Up - I have one and it is great.


Accon makes a good variety of pop up an folding cleats. I have a pop up for the bow and two folding for the stern. So far no issues and a lot fewer lines getting caught on cleats.

Get a pull-up cleat for the bow and stern cleats. Clean and slick. They have pull-up lights too.

I have crew who do that for me . . .

Hmm. Can't say I've had that particular pleasure...but I've only owned our Ensign 20 years. There's still time!

Just to ease my own bruised ego, how many people have tried to "place kick" their bow cleat, barefooted?
