I need some help with the centerboard downhaul attachment for my 2006 14.2. I've recently gotten this boat and there was no CB downhaul attached (or in with the rigging). I've rigged up a temporary shock cord that's tied to the CB and the mainsheet trunk. This appears to be working but I'd rather replace the parts so it's working correctly. Reading a few threads about this, it appears it's supposed to attach via shock cord to the CB and then back to the stern to an eye. I've found the Shock Cord part (#J8084) on Catalina Direct. But my issue is that the eye on my stern appears to be broken off. Haven't been able to find that part on CD. Does anyone know where I can get this part? If not, can anyone provide the eye dimensions (ring size & length) so I can try to find something I can replace mine with? Appreciate any help anyone can offer.
