• a) inspecting predetermined areas of said hull,
• b) inspecting said predetermined areas of said hull for any moisture damaged balsa wood core,
• c) detecting any moisture damaged balsa wood core areas of the hull,
• d) boring at least one small hole through a skin at each detected moisture damaged balsa wood core detected area;
• e) drying each of the detected moisture damaged balsa wood core areas for drying out said blocks of the balsa wood within said detected moisture damaged balsa wood core areas;
• f) after drying of the moisture damaged balsa wood core areas, breaking down any detected rotted blocks of moisture damaged balsa wood within the detected moisture damaged balsa wood core area into wood chips and debris;
• g) de-coring said detected moisture damaged balsa wood core areas, by breaking down said damaged balsa wood core and removing said wood chips and debris from the detected moisture damaged balsa wood core areas through said at least one small hole, thereby forming a cavity within each detected moisture damaged balsa wood core area and,
• h) filling each said cavity with a filled epoxy.
