<p>A retractable marine cleat (18) is operable from a remote location such as the helm of a watercraft. Retraction and extension of the cleat is remotely controlled through a pneumatic actuator (106, 108) or an electric motor assembly. The cleat is spring-biased upwardly to automatically extend the cleat in the event of an on-board power failure. The cleat housing (28) can be provided with doors to conceal the cleat when it is retracted and provide a generally continuous deck surface.</p> |
