Stringer delamination?

I just finished winterizing. As I was pulling the port battery I tapped the stringer and found the glass is loose from the wood for about six feet. Is there any such thing as an easy repair or should I just start parting out the boat.

Duct tape it down, and repaint the bilge. Then list it on Ebay!

Havn't opened it up yet. It feels solid behind. Problem is about 50% of it is going to be a real pain in the ass to get to without some major boat taking apart.

I might list it for the value of the parts.

then I'd have to keep it. I never planned on keeping this boat for more than a couple years. I hate putting a lot of work into somthing I'm not going to keep. I'd like to have a late 90s early 00s formula in a 35'. I have a set of strokers waiting for the right boat.
