Re-Core - From Above or Below

[abl1111]

23' Tsunami -

I have a small area (6" x 6" ) on my bow that is delam'd due to a SS rail stanchion mount. Not structural but I want to correct it. I've epoxy potted all the bolts/screws on the boat except for the (2) stanchions forward of the anchor locker bulkhead - 'cause its so tight in there - and of course, one of the stanchions leaked into the core a bit. I own it !

The deck on the bow is cosmetically perfect and I hate to go through the top to remedy this. The alternative, is to remove ( cut ) the anchor bulkhead and hit it from below. I'd rather this but do not want to create more work regarding the anchor locker bulkhead.

Anyone ' been there, done that ? '

Thx
