I have already taken both apart and have stripped out the rotten plywood. I am planning to use 3/4 exterior plywood and the epoxy resin to recore the fish box lid ( both sides of fiberglas in good shape ) and 3/4 plywood with 3 layers of 10 oz mat under gas tank hatch cover unless any one has better ( less expensive ) ideas. Thanks for any suggestions

Right off the bat, I wanna tell ya I know NOTHING about fiberglassing...but I face the same project you describe about your gas tank hatch cover...mine gives like a freakin' trampoline...I have the resin and glass ready when this heatwave breaks...
What thickness was the wood core that came OUT of the lid?...reason I ask is the 3/4" wood plus 3 layers of glass....I wonder if yer not putting it back too thick and going to interfere w/fittings, shut-off, etc...
