Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

I have used Johnson folder cleats as spring line cleats on my 33-1 for years. However, I was not being satisfied with the fit without some modification. To fill in the space under the outward curl of the toe rail I cut a piece of 1 x 1/8 inch aluminum bar (home depot) with a notch for the bolt.

Dennis, Yes, I just saw that. I can't make mine for that price. The Schaefer Cleat costs more than that. If it's for real, I would have bought that instead of making mine. Gary ~~~_/)~~ On Thu, Jun 28, 2018 at 11:30 AM, Dennis C. via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Ga

Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

Great idea, I just installed a Johnson cleat. I had to spread the clamp to get it on and like you I really don’t like it. I like what you did and will copy your design. Sail Safe, Mike Brannon Virginia Lee 93295 C&C 36 CB Virginia Beach, VA > > > > ___

Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

simply because of my docking situation i have only 1 half finger pier and 3 pilings one side and 4 other with 1/2 pier. so no place to put spring lines that function tohold boat from goong fore and aft. And no place no room for 2 lines on bow or stern cleats even if I could go that route Thi

Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

Hi Rick, Good points. Two reasons for a mid ship cleat. 1. Not all docks (and Piers) have mid cleats. 2. The chocks at the bow and stern of my C&C are not big enough for 2-5/8" dock lines, so chaffing is an issue. Gary S/V Kaylarah ~~~_/)~~ On Wed, Jun 27, 2018 at 10:59 AM, Ric

Re: Stus-List Toe Rail Cleat (revisited)

I’ve actually been following this discussion, though I don’t foresee the need for a mid-ship cleat on Imzadi. Imzadi is one of the mid-70s C&Cs that came with a winch farm around the mast. I’ve led lines aft and eliminated the winches, but kept the cleats on the cabin top. The spring lines i

A couple of weeks back there was a discussion about toe rail cleats. I was unhappy with the Johnson Toe Rail Cleat , so I decided to make my own using a Schaefer 8" Black Aluminum Cleat
