My original thru hull fittings look to be bronze pipe glassed into the hull. I plan to replace these with new thru hull fittings as it is unknow how strong they are. Has anyone ground out these "pipe" thru hulls and replaced with a typical mushroom type?

Removed one from Boomaroo a few months ago because it turned in the hull when I tried to unscrew the old seacock.
The hull was flush outside because the flange was recessed into it. Had to grind the filler and the flange off to remove it.
The fitting was in good condition otherwise which gave me confidence in the other 6 remaining.
