If you do remove the Eye to make a repair, It looks like you've got some extra length on that bolt. I might cut a piece of Starboard to match that wood backing, and either go over or replace the wood. in either case I'd add a large washer where it meets the backing plate. I'd also run the shackle through both holes.
Lastly I'm assuming the rope is tied off to something secure, I might consider replacing the rope with SS cable.
Overkill maybe, but if you're going to take it apart to fix the fibreglass might as well build back better.
