I have an aluminum float on trailer and it has a bar that is held up by springs in front of the winch that is used to attach the boat (I assume in addition to or in place of a strap on the bow eye when trailering). My boat had a through hull fitting which had a lever on it to grab and release the bar when loading and unloading. This is in addition to the bow eye. That through hull fitting apparently rusted and fell off on my last outing of the season last year and I want to replace it. Anyone know what it is called or where to get it.:confused:

I know of what you speak, but not what one might call it....

I saw one of these bar/capture things last fall, but still do not know what it is called- it was on a 1970 something boat.....
