Bobbie,

It definitely should not be moving.  Ideally the pin
should be recessed about 1/8 inch on both sides and
epoxied in place.

You might getaway with it flush and using 3M 5200 but
there seems to be a lot of latteral pressure while
trailering. If your boat gets out of balance so one
bunk board is slightly higher than the other the pin
will wiggle out.

The pin on my CB wiggled almost out and I didn't
notice it and lost my board while sailing.
