In photo #2 and #3 you can see where the old cleat was screwed in. This cleat actually tore off when I hit something with the rudder. The new emergency release cleat has poped once while sailing in Santa Cruz, not really sure why it popped but it caused about 2 seconds of confusion before I figured out what had happened.
