I would think about cutting away the under side of the gunnel leaving the finished top surface in tact. Pull the rotted wood. Then build the underside back up to solid, up to the top skin. Probably a lot of awkward position work. Would be less finish work than rebuilding from the top of the gunnel.

Why would you not go in from underneath on the back side of the deck cap and remove the glass / wood - that way leaving the surface deck finish untouched and in original condition, substantially reducing the labour cost / effort. Then you could glass in a new piece of board from underneath replacing the rotten wood. Similar to repair you just did, but replacing the rot. Quick easy and simple? 👍🏻

Good gawd!! Reason I had a plate alloy boat built. Life time boat. Will never ever go glass again. Im even learning how to TIG weld! A life long ""want"".

Owner of a 1988 Grady White. Wood rot is a big issue in any make older boat, transom the biggest. Next is wiring -- I finely ripped it all out and started over -- should have done that in the very beginning. Next biggest issue is fuel lines, like wiring just rip it out and start over. Don't buy gray Marpac fuel lines, get the good black stuff. Next is all the onlookers at the gas station telling you what a great looking boat you have and wanting to know all about it. If you can turn a wrench and have the time I highly recommend it. PLUS - have you looked at the price of new boats these days!!

Old boats do have problems, but I've had good luck so far with all of mine. My 1975 19 foot Renken runabout served me well for two years when I sold it at the end of this summer.

I’ll add this to my list of things to check when I buy a used boat. Very helpful, thank you!

It's nice to know a 'quick-fix' is OK to do sometimes.... Thank you for posting!

I had a loose t-top on the floor board from a cheap original install. Had to push a ton of 5200 in the holes and screw it down for a mickey mouse fix. Still holding 4 years later.

I had the same thing for a swivel rod holder /giant bluefin fishing. I boarded out the old wood with a coat hanger (18" each way) made wedges of ipe wood, put the wedges in with six10 epoxy and was solid as a rock from then on out.

I'm in the Mickey Mouse Club as well. I've got a '78 Sundance jetboat. One afternoon out on the river, I gave my throttle pedal a good stab, and the whole thing tore out of the floor. I had to gut the interior and replace the floor and carpet. I didnt have the means to reglass the floor in, so i cut the wood panels to fit in front of the engine rails. Used a all weather adhesive on the edges and turned out pretty solid. It only added 3/4" to the height of the rear seat which still stayed beneath the side of the cockpit. So..problem solved.
