Just a couple of cautions for your plan.
As someone pointed out recently, roving is not for use with epoxy.
Wouldn't one of those $12 polyethylene boxes contain the boiled over acid
and protect the boats' structure?

So what do I plan to do about the problem?

I will secure the new shelf to the hull side with roving, or four
or five plies of wide FG tape, as the original shelf was. I will
probably also use a piece of FG tape and epoxy to secure
the shelf to the stringer regardless of whether the original was glued to
the stringer or not.
