The side boat cleats keep popping out while moving is there a way to tighten or keep them from opening up
 
Well, that's a new one...

When my rear cleat fell off, I don't remember any way to tighten the in/out of the cleat (but I wasn't looking for that, of course). I think I would try a small segment of masking tape or electrical tape around one or both of the posts. Might provide just enough friction or additional width to stop random popping in/out.

e you able to just replace the cleat that you lost? Where did you order from?
 
Didn't lose it--it just fell off. Went to pull out the cleat (in storage) and it was loose. Gave it a tug and it came out in my hand...

Found the bolts and washers in the bilge and re installed it.
