A camming cleat for securing a length of line or rope to a boat or other such object, with the camming cleat being designed to simultaneously retain and hold one or a pair of lines in cleated relationship. The device includes a generally conically arranged base plate with a pair of rope receiving slots formed chordally therewithin and having a spring-biased camming plate disposed and received coaxially within the base plate and arranged for rotation relative to the plate. The camming plate is provided with a pair of generally "U" shaped channels each with a profiled depth which decreases as the camming radius increases, and furthermore may be provided with retainer prongs which are curved arcuately in a direction so as to be more generally normal to the axis of the cleated rope.
