    Precision-15 Running Rigging screws backing out?

    Hi, The pulleys of my running rigging clip to a small-eye-strap mounted on the centerboard trunk. While sailing yesterday, I saw that the two screws that hold the strap down had backed/pulled out part way. Yikes! Docked, I screwed them back in. My questions: Do the strap-screws screw into...
