Default Replace stringers or fill with Seacast?

I have an old Donzi center console that has delamination of the stringers. It looks like (ll) when you look at them. I am going to completely redo the boat and want to know thoughts on filling stringers with Seacast.
Thanks for the help

Great stuff! I used it to fix my stringers in my houseboat. Solid repair that will never rot.

Yes. I cut the top off, dug out all the wood, cleaned then filled with Seacast. Capped top of stringer off with fiberglass over the Seacast.

It is not, it is a 26' center console with a swim platform and an outboard.

Really depends on what boat and if you drive like grandpa's pontoon boat or Bobby Sacentti's Apache....
