Auto Release Clamcleat CL257
CL257 Auto-Release Racing Mini cleat which provides a neat solution
to the problem of how to lock-down a rudder yet allow it to flip-up if it
hits the bottom or a solid obstacle in the water. The cleat holds ropes

cleat is overloaded. The CL257 is fitted with an adjustable cam so that
the release tension can be set to suit the boat and local conditions. The
cam is adjusted until the rudder blade is held down reliably under maximum
sailing conditions. The CL257 will then be set so that the least strain is put
on the rudder if it hits something solid. £9-99 each + £1.00 pp
