I noticed the trailer eye hook for my tuffy is pulling out. Any help is appreciated. I am not sure how I could access the hook from inside the hull. Anyone ever have this problem?

Thanks
Dave

The U bow hook on my Gambler boat was getting loose like that. I had to go in by the small front access panel with a long ratchet extension to tighten up the nuts. I put nylon stop nuts on top of the old ones and didn't have any more problems.
No idea how to get to it on your boat, tho. m

Give Scott at Tuffy a call.

If I remember correctly, you will need to pull the front cap. Washer the bolts with big washers and tighten it back up, but don't over tighten or you will craze the gelcoat.
