Maybe it's just me but for years I've thought there has to be a better solution to the head knocker cleat on the mast. Yes it's much better than the older styles with a cam cleat on the beam.
But I have a few issues with it:
1) It does come uncleated sometimes, rare but it happens
2) The halyard rarely stays cleated upwind unless you wrap it (but then you always forget to unwrap it and it slows down the hoist) I've added double springs in my cam cleat and it still doesn't hold it upwind.

I work for a company that could make a new one.
We have some smart people on here... anyone have thoughts?
