A longitudinally folding marine cleat can include a base having a first fastener retention slot and a second fastener retention slot, each having a first jaw and a second jaw defining opposing opening surfaces and opposing retention surfaces. The opposing retention surfaces can be spaced apart at a distance configured to receive a square portion of a carriage bolt therebetween to fix the fastener in axial rotation with respect to the base, and the opposing opening surfaces can be spaced apart at a distance narrower than a distance across the square portion of the fastener, but at a width permitting a shank portion of the fastener to laterally pass through. A cleat head can be hingedly coupled to the base with first and second legs, which together with the base are configured as a four-bar linkage to transition the cleat head between deployed and stowed positions.
