[Rhodes22-list] Rudder uphaul

[Peter Nyberg]

I’m currently on my boat in the parking lot of the Toyota dealer in Thomaston Maine waiting for my truck breaks to be fixed, so I’ve got good access to my boat, and time on my hands.

On my rudder, the uphaul line runs through a device that has a cam to port and a roller to starboard. I’ve taken a picture, but don’t know how to reduce the size on my iPad, so it might get rejected.

There’s some writing on mine that allowed me to find the manufacturer: https://rwo-marine.com/store/rope-management/camcleats/r3591-cleat-6mm-lance-p-b-pk-size-1/

Apparently, this is sometimes called a ‘lance cleat’.  I haven’t found a U.S. retail source.
