Since it goes most of the way 'round the boat, you may be tempted to pry the hull and deck further apart, or even separate them completely, in order to get better access to the repair area. DON'T DO IT! This will break the adhesive at the mast step, cockpit, and cockpit drain bonding points.
Work around the boat a little at a time, clean, prep, insert adhesive, and clamp.
I second the recommendation to use 5200. I used it on about a 3-4' section of gunwale on my last boat, and it held great, strong, and non-flexible. People have no idea how strong that stuff is when used in quantity.
My daughters boat is separating at the back corner, i bought the West System Six1o thickened apoxy adhesive will this work as good. Im not good with mixing stuff.
I found a 1978 laser for free....a tree fell on it. Hull and Deck separated along with hull cracks and holes. I've been working on it this past winter. i'm almost done. When i get a chance i'll completely document the fix...I completely separated the deck and hull, repaired all the cracks and holes then reassembled with 5200. Probably not race legal but i never intend to race it.
