Second the above. You need to know if this is a cored hull with a massive and dangerous structural problem or if this is localized wood that can be readily replaced.

It is possible to locally recore. Some work from the inside and some from the out, but whichever way you find easier it means taking the glass structure on one side away, googing out the soaked core, scarfing in new core, and then rebuilding the glass to original. Not by any means trivial as the problem can easily run well below the chainplates and can run fore and aft quite a way. But doable for those with the guts.

G'luck
