Abstract: A rope locking device comprising a body, threading holes, a locking member, and a cleat. The rope is threaded through a first threading hole, and the rope is twisted to form a locking loop. The locking loop engages the locking member, and the free end of the rope is passed through the second threading hole, passed through a support, and attached to the cleat. The rope's attachment to the cleat is accomplished in the same manner as a boating rope is attached to a boat cleat, and there is no need to form any knots in the rope.
