Another way to achieve a similar result is to use a "Club" type of automotive 
steering wheel lock. Just lock the device across the cockpit coaming if there 
is a seat or hip brace in place to prevent it from pivoting out, or put it 
across the long axis of the coaming if the cockpit is small enough. Unless 
someone hacks the coaming apart, you have a secure locking point.
