ropewalkerI need to repair a spot where a small padeye pulled out of the hull (#6 screws) and I want to fill the hole, then redrill.

Use this and let it cure in the sun. Use a mirror if you need to.

It will be stronger than the fiberglass.

Why did it pull out?
where on the boat is it?

If it is under real load , it may need some backing plate added to the repair
