Any hack with a drill and a hammer could help you but here's a better idea. Take your boat up to Stu Smith at Ellie's Sailing in Clearwater...he's a master craftsman and a first class character. Have him fix it tomorrow (Friday) and then stay over for the Icecrusher Regatta at the Dunedin Causeway. It is on Saturday, January 22, with a 11:00 start.
