Go to Home Depot and buy how ever many you need of the liquid nails panel adhesive. Drill your holes where you plan to pump the stuff in. Set those cartridges out in the sun for several hours. Let the stuff get really hot, and then pump it into the holes. The hotter it becomes the more fluid it will be. It works.

Set up time is about a week - so only do this if you plan on not using the boat for awhile.

WOW, that is a new one ! heard of using Great stuff & Gorilla glue, seems like it would never dry, or not dry hard. How bad off were your hulls ?

I had 3 deck soft spots. 7" x 10" She dried up nice. Of course, the more time she has to cure, the better.

Oh (censored), Don't do this procedure... Upon closer inspection, its curing very very slowly. I goofed, this procedure is not good thing to do.. For me, it will be OK, but it cures to slow. Sorry about that.
