Adding additional cleats to a V hull - How difficult is it?

[fatlazyless]

Everything you need is at Lowe's-Gilford; three sizes of low priced, 1.95-2.95-3.95, black, hard rubber cleats that can get maintained with vaseline once/year, stainless screws, stainless fender washers, and rubber fender washers to protect the underside of the fiberglass hull, and stainless stop nuts!


Or, if you really want, you can go to Lakeport Landing or Silver Sands, and pick up some spring loaded, performance marine architect designed, pop-up cleats, suitable for a Baja or a Formula for some unbelievable price like $125. each, or some unbelievable price like that!


Can you guess what I would use?


Now, if only the Gilford - Lowe's would get their free coffee machine back up and working! Come on Lowe's.....it's time to fix your free coffee & hot chocolate machine! You know that the Home Depot in Tilton has free coffee, and they do it without a fancy-dancy, super coffee machine.....they do it with just a coffee pot and a hot plate.....just like at Heath's in Center Harbor which also has the same hard rubber cleats as Lowe's, but probably for a buck or so, more money!
