I have turned the eye screw 90 degrees so as to make it a little harder for a carabiner to move over onto the board. Even still, I plan to keep the outermost clip at least a foot off the boards now and be sure to see exactly where they are...

At first glance, the eye looks very close to the front of the board. A fishing line on the eye will cause the front to ride heavy in the water in that case.
I would move the eye back.
The boards must act like a boat to work correctly. If the board plows through a wave, you will have problems.
