Anybody know what they are? I'm making spars for a sailing pram and
the plans - very poor plans - mention "deck clips" on the
gaff/yard/sprit/whatever you want to call it to secure the halyard to
the spar.

Whatever they are, they aren't cleats because the plans show those
(elsewhere) by name.

Found them...they are just eye straps. "Deck clip" appears to be a
British term...
