Don't be so fast to underestimate your 20' Seafari. I've been out with CSICKNICK on his Seafari in large seas during November and the boat was fine. I wish I could say the same for me....I was so nervous, I made him head back in.

Gotta second what ED is saying. 20 is very nimble and seaworthy. The old owner of my 20MA used to fish 70miles offshore at guide and pioneer seamounts in nasty pacific ocean.
BoneFish is probably be right, but I'd still try with the holes first. Hit the stringer with a line of holes every 12" to 18" with a 1" hole saw . . . . save the plugs. It's not going to dry out overnight, but using a fan and heater you could probably get away without pulling the boat apart . . . Especially b/c it's just one side and just the very bottom of that one stringer.
