What about an 0 X 0 ? That's what I do and what my offshore examiner wanted to see also

Why use cleat hitch when there is OXO ? If you like it more complex and inconvenient but "looking" more secure? then use cleat hitch. If you value good seamanship - OXO. Ever tried to untie cleat hitch with one hand in a hurry? good luck with that great knot
