TOPIC: Need Cleat - 1965 Starcraft Newport

Hi all:

New to this board - Great site! Found it while looking around for a cleat for my 1965 Starcraft Newport I/O - My dad bought the boat new in 1965 - Her name is Pretty Penny and except for the canvas and the seats she is all original. I've posted a pic for you here and also at the link below. The cleat I am looking for broke in 1967 or so from foolishly pulling a skiier on it. (Long story). A photo of the cleat is on the website. Any leads would be appreciated.

welcome rum diet,i think if you put a pic of the cleat here on fg ,in this post someone might have what your looking for,nice boat by the way,john

Here is a photo of the cleat- Anyone have an idea of where I can find one?

I see cleats real similar if not exactly like this on eBay on a pretty regular basis. Can't vouch for the size or hole pattern though. Good luck.

Thanks - I did look on ebay - will have to make a habit out of it I suppose!

Welcome aboard.
I will dig through my stuff. I just sold a Starcraft and recognize the cleat. I might just have one.

RunDiet (great name). Here's one on eBay.

Thanks tudor - put a bid on it - although it looks like it may need a lot of polishing! We'll see . . .
