I have one cleat up front to tie off the anchor rope.
I wanted to install 3 more cleats so I would have one on each corner of the boat.
However, I am thinking that I shouldn't really need a cleat on the boat itself, just four separate ropes in each corner to tie to the dock.
Instead of installing the cleats, would it make more sense to install some type of ring or other hardware to merely tie one end of the rope to?
Is there a valid reason for having a cleat on the boat for tying to a dock?
