Jon, I wish I had the answer. The pin in my M15 is flush with both sides of the keel. I do not know if it is the original pin and for some reason I doubt that it is. I have had repeated problems keeping the pin in and I would rather not put a bolt in but I am coming close. I tried 4200 - it crept out very quickly. I glassed it over and it lasted about 3 trips and broke out the fiber glass. I covered the pin on both sides with really sticky, strong clear sail repair tape and this worked well for a while but the pin then started punching through the tape! I recently took a spare pin and cut off 1/4 inch to get the pin recessed so the epoxy would have more bight. I have epoxied it in but haven't had the boat out yet.
