Moving the mainsheet attachment to the transom

I have a 1979 O'Day 27 with a traveler in the middle of the cockpit. I have seen a number of pictures in which the mainsheet is attached to the transom and I know this was an original option. Unfortunately none of the pictures show the actual fitting on the transom for the mainsheet. Neither have I been successful in finding other O'Day 27 owners locally in the Niagara/Toronto area so I can go and take a look at their boats. Can any O'Day 27 owner help me with a picture or drawing of the proper transom fitting ?

This is the tech support area of the forums.
You'll have much better luck in engineering and systems section . That's where sails and rigging and all that good stuff is
