Gordy Hill Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 I used pop-up cleats on my CS17 and loved them! Quote
ricknriver Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Thanks for the info Gordy. Very nice units. Has anyone tried the Quick Cleats http://www.quick-cleat.com/products/also seem to be low profile and resistant to snagging sheets? But wonder if they hold as good as the pop-ups at steep line angles? Rick Quote
PAR Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I see these cleats on powerboats frequently enough, but never on a sailboat. The straight horns also have me concerned about high angled leads from sheets or other lines, though used on dock lines they seem strong enough with a horizontal or nearly so load. Their construction looks beefy, but compared to a solid horn cleat, I'll bet there's a huge difference. Quote
