One thing I noticed in the picture is that the bow eye is not connectec to the cleat on top of the deck, and it should be conected with a threaded rod (pref. stainless steel rod) there is a piece available on stainless steel that allows you to conNecT both. If you're ever need to lift your boat by the cleat you'll be sorry if they're not connected. Besides, if the cleat is not connected, any heavy seas or anybody going too fast when you're mooring could yank it off the deck.
