its a ply 16 foot dory. build a new one. gently take the one you have
apart lay the hull sections out fair them, draw on the replacement
ply, cut, fair, stick back on hull and epoxy.
if you want the same boat you have all the patterns you need to build
a new boat that is just like the old one.
but i prefer wood boats to any other material so a little fixing now
and again is not to hard a thing.
