Retractable Dock Line Replacement

My 2011 302 has retractable dock lines at the bow and stern. Is anyone aware if you can replace those with a cleat? TIA

So glad you found us 2011302.

Cool option. Never knew the 302 had that feature. Any pics?

And welcome aboard mate.

Are the retractable dock lines not working anymore?

The starboard line toward the stern is missing the end that keeps it from fully retracting inside the boat, so I tied a knot in it. The retractable mechanism is fully functional, but I am worried that the rope may not be long enough. Also, I would like to be able to place a bumper back there.

A boat from Wisconsin

I think you can buy that line. I remember it being posted on here years ago. Love the colors!

Thanks AJ, I was having trouble wrapping my head around this issue. A picture was worth a couple of paragraphs on this one.

I’ve always thought these retractable dock lines were the bees knees and have wanted them for my boat, but I’ve always balked at the price tag.

I would be adding cleats so that they would be an addition to the retractable dock lines and not a replacement.

I am considering adding cleats, but I don’t want to compromise the fiberglass.

I found out that 10" pop-out cleats will replace the retractable line mechanism.

The 10" pop-up cleats to replace the retractable lines are sold by:

Marine Town Inc.

Crystal River, FL 34428
T: 352-564-1150
