+1 on Gary’s solution. Firewater came with these and I have used them for spring lines for years.

I’d like to find a solution for midship cleating for docking/departing and springline placement. I’m currently securing a line around a stanchion mount, which seems strong, but I’d like to find a cleat that mounts to the toe rail. Haven’t seen anything in the catalogs. I’m thinking a carabiner or even a soft shackle through a rail hole might be a good fix. Given the general opinion that midship cleating is handy, I’m curious what you use.
