I will be filling in all the holes and will be replacing the bow light with a flip up and a single cleat for the bow.... I am thinking 8 " should handle the job for anchoring or mooring .... and will be adding the SS strips for rubbing .. ( when I figure out what they are called ) .. will epoxy or polyester be the best bet ... ??? and what mat do I need to go back over this with.. I plan to add 4 rod holder to the forward of the original outrigger holders also.... ( going back with them ) I have access to 2 local glass suppliers.. they carry different brands and 1 is very reasonable being a small family run supply house ...
Thanks for the help !! getting very excited to get some things done on my baby and the new engine hung !!!

30lb core is a bit overkill for rod holders, but you would not need backing plates if you used that dense of a core
I use and recommend epoxy, its just a guaranteed bond. one layer of 1708 is all you need, you can even use one layer of DB1200 if your using epoxy (epoxy does not require mat)
