Consider to put a bronze pipe cap and double nuts on the old
throughhull, then fill the beast with epoxy mush .... simply leave it
in place, but 'deadheaded'.

Can anyone point me to some good on-line info on plugging old through
hull holes in a fiberglass hull?

Any other advice appreciated. The yard wants 6% of what I paid for
the boat just to plug one and put a new backing block in another. I
hate working with glass but it looks like I'll be doing this myself.

Did you look at the Don Casey book about fiberglass repair? He has a lot
of
good how to info and probably describes repairing fiberglass holes.
