I'd like to replace it with a funcitonal one.

Now I'm pretty handy with my hands and can normally fix or build just about anything that doesn't need machining.

I was looking at rectangular brass tubing at my hobby store and was wondering if I could make a hitch out of that. I would remove the plastic broken plastci hitch except for the upper portion showing the two bolts. Then I would fashion a hitch similar to the one in the attached pic and bolt it to the underside of the hull.

But I don't know if that would be strong enough. Would I also need a portion at the top to secure it to the upper portion of the hull?

Anyone have any other ideas?
