At the end of last season, I noticed that my centerboard pin needed repair.
I had just smeared some epoxy around the bolt head. I thought it would hold. However, the epoxy broke and the pin started to pull out of the plate.

| here you can see it broke |

| I had added some caulk. You can see a bit here |
I decided to glue it better, so I cut a plate that fit the bolt head and glued it on there.
 |
| kinda messy but not going to move |
 |
| I scraped away the caulk and put in a new red rubber seal. |
I re-installed the pin but I'd like to test it by spraying some water up there with the hose before I call this one finished.
