If you have the mid-ship cleat in the right place, the forward pressure by the motor would make the boat to cling to the finger. It is a question of positioning the cleat in the right place. With the toe rail that is standard on most of the C, this is not an issue, because you can move the

I use the midship SS toe rail cleat without issue. With just a spring line decelerating the boat, how do you stop the bow from swinging into the finger and the stern from swinging out? This is the reason I have a stern/spring line combo for my setup. Tightening the stern line from the cockpit
