I've used a cut off stubby Allen wrench chucked into a drill to remove core in a cored hull for a thru-hull or transducer or whatever, but I cant imagine how you would do it for a whole gunwale or bulkhead.

A trim router with a straight paddle cutting bit and a steady hand mostly. If i cant fit the router ill use a die grinder with some kind of burr chucked in it. A sharp stubby 1/4” drill bit works well too. Im only going 3/8”ish deep in most cases, and in high impact areas.
