I can't help you with the drain hole, but I can give you a good tip for when it's done. Since we should always remove the drain plug from the hole when the boat is on the hard, a good tip is to place a small screen over the open hole to prevent pests from entering and colonizing your bilge while you’re away. A stainless steel household kitchen sink drain screen, sold in hardware stores, is perfect for this.

You could drill a 2 inch hole where the original drain hole is. Then pour a hockey puck out of epoxy the same thickness and diameter. After it cures, epoxy it into the hole u drilled and drill a new drain hole. Not sure of the accessibility, but u could also put a layer of glass on the inside to strengthen it.
Or dry out the hole with a heat gun, coat with some thinned epoxy ,rotate the garboard plug and put in some fresh screws. Call it a day and deal with it when u address the transom Last edited by phatdaddy; 04-29-2020 at 07:14 AM. Reason: Spelling

I think its 3/4 pvc that the drain plug fits, afteer fixing teh wood, drill ahole big enough for the pvc to fit in, coat the pvc and the hole with thickened epoxy and stick the pvc in the hole, protruding both sides. after it cures, cut it flush, now you have a drain hole, that is sealed to the wood.
