The pin threads into the hull. I'm not sure what they thread into, if its a plate or a plug of sorts. If the threads are messed up on the female part I'm not sure what you can do other than run a tap in it and clean up what is left. Or, cut out whatever it threads into and replace it. |

On the Tigers there is a plate glassed into the hull. Accessable from the front port hole cover. the pin screws through the plate. I will try to get a decent pic. |

make sure to put some Sika Flex on the bolt oand in the hole before you thread it in. keeps it water tight. |

Get one of those small teloscopic mirrors at an automotive parts store...should be able to see the plate then. |
