    Also, several of the screw holes are 'wallowed out' - should I reglass and
    re-drill thrm or is there an easier way to get the crews to actually grip
    the thru-holes again?

    Hi!

    Drill an oversized hole (approx 2-3 times bigger, than the screw holes),
    fill with epoxy putty, let it harden, an then drill a hole for the screw.
    I had about 100 wallowed holes, when I removed everything from
    the boat for a deck painting project.
