ABSTRACT:
A boat's cleat having opened cord receiving ends with a rail post attachment. Slanted surface grooves within the cleat's opening permit a cord to be squeezed and held therein when subjected to a downward force, like the weight of an attached fender, while an upward force permits the cord's easy removal from the cleat. The post attachment may be a separate member held to the cleat by a hook and screw attachment or may be molded to it as a unitary structure and held to the post by a nut and bolt fastener.
