I highly doubt that Seacast is an option for an old boat. The price of that stuff is outrageous. The plywood method is probably the most economical repair, though a little more labor intensive. If you have the money and want to stick it in an old boat, then Seacast may be an option. I have heard good things about it.

Just my opinion, but I would never use wood on a boat without coating it with at least 2 coats of epoxy resin. You want to find a way to seal the wood from the elements. I think epoxy resin is the best way and it is strong. Maybe it is just me, but I want to be sure it is the last time that I have to do that repair.
