Pop-up Cleates

[Rich]

I got mine over the phone at Boat Owners Warehouse in Florida.

I got 4 of the 8 inch new style wide line cleats from Accon.

I think they were around $60 each new. Good price.

If you have the time Eba is the way to go. If you want to buy them at a fair price, Log into Ebay and do a search on Accon. There is a great company in Fla. that is a boat builder and buys directly from Accon and resells at a fair price. They have a ton of cleats normally for sale. I bought pop up bow chocks and cleats from them and even had a problem that was worked by them to my satisfaction. Hope this helps. Rich

You guy's that have put pop ups cleates on your boat. What size did you use? 6in or 8in units?

I have two 6" cleats as shown below.


If I used a single cleat in the middle of the deck, I'd have gone with an 8"

After much reserch I bought 3- of the 8in units @ $96.05
This was $1.05 more than on Ebay. I would have to pay Fl. sales tax on the ones on Ebay + shipping.
So I bought them local thru Brown's Marine and saved the shipping cost.
Thanks for the help. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I have a pull-up Accon cleat that I'd let go for $50 (I went with the 6" instead on the 20' redo).

What model SC do you have ? I just attempted to mount new 6" pop ups on my 85' 23'CC and cannot get close to the smooth cut out due to the depth of the cleat and interference with the liner.

How did you get the cleats so close to the outer edge?

I have the Master Angler. The difference between that and the sf for that period is the "thicker" gunwale cap. On many models, the gunwale is even with the rub rail. Mine is raised from 2" to about 5" n the stern, giving much appreciated extra freeboard when bouncing through the rips.
