The compression columns need to be much smaller than the washer inside the hull. Otherwise the outboard is only held in by the shear strength of the secondary bond from the column to core. I would suggest having fibers run transverse to the bolt axis. Or put in a load spreader like c channel. At which point, the pressure drops to the point of not needing compression columns. I think?
