Cleats are essential for docking lines. Mooring bitts are better for anchor lines, mooring lines and tow lines when needed. The bitts are large enough to handle several lines if needed. I mounted one on my bow deck and a smaller one on the stern deck. The bitts will allow for much larger bolts and screws. It is a good idea to reinforce the deck if possible.
