Trouble hanging a hammock chair. What's the best safe solution?

Can't you just use a bigger and longer eye bolt than what was there?

I've gone up to a 3/4 inch bolt. It's starting to become cost prohibitive to find bigger bolts at this point.

Can you post a picture of the beam?

A hefty lag eye bolt would probably work

Like this, get the highest rating that will work on your beam

Is the other side of the beam accessible? If so, run bolts and nuts all the way

Good idea, but no. It's not accessible.

A diet plan recommended by your wife's sister. Don't recommend it yourself.
