New boat owner here. I recently bought a v haul jon boat. Last time I was trailering it I snapped through the old bow ring. I have been debating how to fix this. The ring is riveted into the front of the boat. It is all external. No rivets seen inside the boat. Im wondering if anyone has any advice as to removing the old bow ring and then how to replace (machine shop?) with a new one. I know they sell bow rings but I was trying to not drill holes in the boat and I'm not sure what backing (shape of otherwise) piece I would be able to use with the v haul. Any advice would be appreciated as I am lost about how to go about this.
