I have a 1963 Nauset that recently lost a stern eye for attaching trailer straps . I’d really like to replace all 3 so it’s like starting fresh , I have no clue where to find them ... any suggestions or direction would be greatly appreciated

I suggest you call Nauset Marine, a sponsor of this site. They will ship the part(s) to you. The exterior eyelet is shown on their website, that is part number: 1033059 Bow Eye. The bow eye is the same as the stern exterior eyelets.

Buyer beware Specialty Marine "stainless" hardware, also doing business as "Marine Part Depot": the stainless they sell rusts and the threads are metric, not standard like what you need to fit OE studs. They also sell parts they claim are BW OE fit, like the bow stud but it is not the right size.

If you look at the Parts Index, (under Resources drop down) you will see this entry.
