TACO MARINE’S TRANSOM CROSS TIE CLEAT XL

Taco Marine 400

August 21, 2018

The new TACO Marine® Transom Cross Tie Cleat XL, which will be available to distributors later this year and to retailers in 2019, is specially designed to keep lines organized and elevated when a dock surface drops below outboard motor cowlings.

The patent-pending locking mechanism allows for a secure cleat that is easy to reach, remove and reinstall to tie off at the stern. These cleats can also be used to hang fenders and chum bags.

With a 15-degree, large, S-shape design, the XL cleats fit into standard rod holders of 1-7/8-inches in diameter. The large loop hole accommodates line up to 5/8-inch thick.

When not in use, simply apply pressure, push down, twist and remove the cleat from the gunnel. Safely stow the cleats in the included mesh bag, even when wet.
