what is this?

Dog picked this up somewhere in the boat yesterday. No idea what it is or where it came from. Has a metal prong on one side and the other end is internally threaded. Inner void is about the size of an old fashioned glass fuse.

Possibly adaptor for inflating tubes?

possible since I did dump out one of the inflatable paddleboard bags. The threaded end looks to be the right size for a needle.

This is the threaded fitting for an air pressure gauge for a high-quality inflatable. I have the same part and it came with the pressure gauge that I use to inflate my "tender" to get out to the houseboat on the mooring ball. You can see it in the 2nd picture here:

The metal pin opens the one-way flap in the boston valve used on higher pressure inflatables.

awesome, that is it.   I dont have a gauge that im aware of, but the paddleboard was bought used a couple years ago - certainly could be a random part that got left in the bag with it.
