    By the way, anybody know what material this is? This is what was screwed to the old deck and the console was screwed to these segments at the base of the console all around the perimeter.

    Then 2 layers of 1708 along the whole chine for repair and reinforcing! Will that be enough or could I use a third layer of 1708. I did go with the Poly Resin, the Epoxy was too pricey. I am gonna repeat the process on the opposing chine as the areas seem to be weak.
