replacement cleats for the typhoon

Post by Ray Murray »

I've created this project for me this spring...
that is to replace my alumimum cleats with similar styled cleats of either bronze or stainless steel I'll even go with chrome if I have to.

But i've been searching and I can't seem to find any manufacturer the replicates the design of the original cleats.

Bristol Bronze and Spartan come close even Pettit is pretty close but either the size or design are off.

The bow and stern cleats are not the problem this issue lies with the 2 cleats on the cabin top and the 2 on the sides.

Any suggestions or experiences would be appreciated.

If you were interested in saving a little money, here's a pair of cleats for quite a price. "Buy it now" for $5.85.

I bought some new line from these guys for the sheets this year, and it was great quality and dirt cheap. I think they are great.

Kick me if I'm wrong, but aren't these the exact same 5" cleats Spartan Marine sells?
