1983 Outrage 18,bow eye worked itself loose and damaged the hull/fiberglass oround it(while on the trailer). I purchased a new D ring and threaded rod. Its a structural /stress area,so whats the best way of repairing it. I would like to fill the space where the rod passes through the hull(with the rod passing through it) to provide some strength and cover up the exposed foam and then appropiately repair the outside where the D ring/lifting ring sits on the hull. There are some pics on my homepage of the damage. Thanks.
