You say that now? Just wait till you have to fair the back of the boat back true. Then you will really think twice about doing another one. I wont ever do one from the back side due to the amount of fairing. But doing one from the inside isn't fun either cause you still have to cut and reinstall the liner section and fair that out too. Its a lot of work either way. All this just for a boat ride??? The cost of having a true classic, Priceless. The love of labor is a must when you own an old anything- boat , car, truck ,historic home you name it!
To help your rear eye problem cut them with the saw like mentioned and throw them away. You can get an eye that has nuts on both sides inside and outside. Just hand tighten the inside (probably wont get a wrench in there to tighten them well) then use the outer nuts to get them tight. You can get a small kid with little arms to reach in and put the nuts back on for you on the inside.
