Bow cleats
The Bow of the boat is going to be reworked this year, There is a lot of stress there and the old cleats that hold the dock lines are just not holding up anymore I guess 33 years is enough. So before anything gets really damaged we are installing some fine cast bronze 8 inch cleats. They have a nice patina that has developed over the years, but I chose to polish them up anyway, just to clean up the burrs on the cast. The color will return over time. The motor is being repaired for the electric winch, which will also have to be installed along with some new electrical work.
