Clamcleat CL804 tapered pad
Jun 7, 2024 | By Max Crittenden
My boom vang is led aft to the cockpit and cleated in a CL201 Clamcleat. But it often pops loose,so I considered cutting a wooden wedge to go under the cleat to improve the locking angle. Then I discovered that Clamcleat makes a tapered pad for the same purpose. It's a very cheap item, but most vendors would have charged an unreasonable shipping cost relative to the pad's price. Sailmaker's Supply had a very reasonable shipping cost, especially when I added a few other items that I use regularly such as shock cord. The tapered pad had slightly undersized holes for the 1/4" screws that the cleat takes, but it was an easy matter to drill them out. I expect the cleat to hold the vang line more securely now.
