the hole needs to be coated in epoxy,this will seal the wood against water migration... another thing that i've ran into on various client's boats,is the fact people can't grasp the concept,of installing rod holders in the gunnels -these holes need to be drilled at the correct angle - seems alot of people just drill a large hole and butcher it to make the rod holder fit - lost count of this method of installation i've seen... going the "top" route to recore gunnels: not much "skin" on the underside of the gunnels - it's much easier to go from below,versus above -using a composite material is definatley the way to go... but...if your weight,body weight and size,is making that a problem,perhaps putting the fork down,and getting a little exercize,for a few months before beginning this repair would help ? refinishing the gunnels after recoring : best method is rolling awlgrip...

That's crazy talk!!!!  If you had added "and quit drinking beer", that would have been stupid crazy talk!!!

 ...so I need to do some training prior to the repair...darn it.... It is just hard for me to bend and contort my body in precarious positions..my son keeps me busy though...  guess I'll see what Don Herman is up to...he is spry and limber!!!! Don I agree with you ...just plain crazy talk
