| Author: John Jacobs ([email protected]) contact the author Subject: strong mooring cleat Info: (22331 views) Posted: Monday 6-27-05 10:28:46 AM |
I'd rather not install big cleats on deck that'll foul lines and sails. A bow eye was considered but it seems that the coring extends all the way to the stem and I don't know the thickness of the outer skin at the stem. The forestay fitting on the deck is a strong point but isn't set up for attaching lines with heavy forward loads.
Does anyone have a good solution or bright idea for attaching two 1/2" mooring lines off the bow? Thanks.
