Symmetric Spinnaker-How to Build one

Instant horn cleats. I was searching for places to put cleats to control the new guys and sheets for the spinnaker. I made 4 instant cleats for less than $5. The little cap screw that holds the push pin for the Getaway seats can be removed and replaced with a longer cap screw or carriage bolt. Need four more nuts and four 1/4 by 4" cap screw or carriage bolt. I got zinc plated, so they will rust eventually, but for $5 more, I can easily replace them (or I could find some stainless ones for about $20). I thought about replacing the push pins with longer push pins, but the orientation of those might have been dangerous to someone in a fall.
