Default mystery product needed

What I need is some product that I can inject and fill in a section 2'X2'X3/4 were there was once plywood. It is a none structure just a deck section that the wood rotted out of and I want to fill in the void with something way more dense than spray foam for sealing windows as it gets walked on. Hope you know what I am trying to explain. Thanx, Andy...

How about a piece of starboard? If it has support all the way around it should work for you.

here ya go, careful with the lighter densities. They have a pretty big ratio of expansion. They WILL blow right out of the fiberglass if not careful. Best to work in small amounts with a plastic syringe. I have used this to repair cores that are not accessable by any other means and i could not break the outer skin. Works great but like i said be careful it will get away from ya.

Looks like the stuff I need, any left over I will use on my late paying customers bung holes. Everyone wants there boats done yesterday but when payment is due they always say tomorrow. I guess payment will follow after there bowel movements, usually in 2-3 weeks.....too funny...
