Bill, I'm glad to be able to help. Questions are no bother. The helpfulness on this mail list just goes round and round until everyone benefits sooner or later. I know I have been the recipient many times. The stop pin can be driven out from either direction. It is just a plain piece of 3/8" ss rod (unless some previous owner of your boat changed it for some reason). Your stop pin could very well be bent (from the board being dropped rather than eased into position). The one on GRACE was. I picked up a piece of scrap 3/8" ss rod from a metal shop to replace it.
