Better watch it, Tom, or he and Harry will start telling lies about

They used to be bitter enemies. Evidently they both ran out of friends.

Yes, they did, but they are both alike in that if they can get one
person to acknowledge their crappy existence, they're happy.

Well damnit, you're thrilling the hell out of them!

Please, knock it off.

I have a bow cleat inside the open bow, and 2 large cleats on each side.
Front ones by the windshield and the rear ones about 12" from the transom..
I leave the bow line always attached and just toss in in the front section
when not using it. *Neatly tossed.

All my lines (bow, stern and spring) are attached to the dock cleats
(adjusted during the initial Spring launch and docking), along with
one or two fenders. When leaving the dock they are released from the
boat. When coming into the dock all I/we have to do is attach them
back onto the cleats on my boat.

BTW: I have a floating dock on the Vermilion River off Lake Erie.
