OK, I'll grab some of the milled glass. Easy enough - thx for the clarification.

Sorry, no pix as of yet. It's pretty straightforward though - I should have 'potted' this whole area initially. I have come to NOT trust any form of silicone, polysulfide etc. in a cored area.

With this repair, and I guess a similar repair would be repairing small sections of a delaminated floor, my concerns are making sure their are no voids in my repair. I will adjust the trailer to make the boat as level as I can, then a little taping underneath and then I'll slowly inject the epoxy/glass mix in and let it flow to the voids and fill as needed - until it won't fill no 'mo. Then, I'll let it cure and drill through the bolt holes and the large, oval hole where the windlass dumps the chain and line into the locker below.

The only other cored area on the boat that I didn't pot and I will soon, are the (4) transom bolts/nuts holding the top of my full-transom length swim platform brackets in place - I potted the (4) bottom bolt/nuts that are under water...
