Anyone using Spinlock PX swivel powercleats for jib sheets? If so, how do you rate them, and where can they be purchased for under 50 bucks? Thanks.

Would never consider those. Or any cleat with a fairlead on it or in front of it.

If you need to dump your jib quickly, you need to be able to get it off the winch and or through the fairlead. If you have a knot a kink or any other problems, that line will not run free and could pose a problem.

Horn Cleat for Cruising, Cam without fairlead or Jam (called clam sometimes) for racing
