Where to mount bow cleats
Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2020 3:48 pm
We've owned this Bristol 26 for about a year now. I'd like to mount two cleats on the bow so I can add a second mooring pendant. The single cleat is aluminum and doesn't have enough room for the loop on my pendant to pass through.
I'm wondering where the best place to mount these cleats are, or if there are any other options. What are those bronze rings for? I was thinking about mounting the cleats there, but they might get in the way of the anchor rode. I'd rather not go drilling and mounting things if they'll get in the way later. (I already removed that oddly angled anchor roller a couple days ago)
Thanks,
Joe
