Spring line cleats?
 

Who's got cleats about midships for springlines, ona post 80' "V"? I'm looking for the proper place to mount another cleat on each side. As usual, pics are encouraged. ::)

Thanks

I don't have em, but am thinking about installing as well. I was thinking right next to the helm seat for convenience, where you can reach it from the helm or from behind the helm seat.

I have them on both sides, you can see where in this pic

They're a good place to hang a fender, too.

Absolutely perfect Pipe ;) Now, are they mounted on the horizontal surface as they appear, or are they on the vertical surface? That is the place that I was considering?

Thanks a bunch

Thanky CY, that works to. Looks like its time for another round of projects. Dam wind won't let me get offshore, so I'll spend the fuel money on projects ;D ::)

Going to the Hambone in the "V"? If we get the right day later this summer I'm game. ;D

Hey, I'm comy in the "V" up to about 40 miles off. I like to have company in case of mechanical problems, but I ain't skeert to take her offshore at all. That said, I do like a few days of stable high pressure and no more than 3' seas. If I had more fuel, or that new 150 Opti, I'd even extend my range on the right day 8)
