Bull Dog Boat Cleat / Bollard. This premium deck fitting features a highly distinct arched, streamlined bridge designed for modern yachts, motorboats, and sailboats.
Mechanical & Design Advantages
Enlarged Center Pass-Through: The signature arch under the main bar creates an extra-large central cutout. This allows mooring lines to be threaded or passed completely through the center quickly and smoothly, facilitating secure tie-offs even with thicker ropes.
No-Snag Low Silhouette: The smoothly tapered, downward-swept horns minimize rope friction, prevent localized line chafing, and dramatically reduce the risk of stubbed toes or tangled fishing lines on busy deck spaces.
Stud-Mount Stability: Engineered to use pre-integrated bottom threaded studs (rather than top-facing screw counter-sinks). This under-deck mounting style hides hardware from the surface, prevents salt water from pooling inside screw holes, and spreads structural shear loads evenly across the deck substrate.
