I'll find more info for ya on the process......... then you can make the decision.
Personally , I'd give it a shot. Worst case , cover it with the SeaDek after the injection.
I had the SeaDek on my old boat (pre Mariah) and it worked great. It's very user friendly in my opinion.

    I am going to try to replace the wood in the end at the step and proably inject the rest. Not sure if it will be better or worse. I am basically going to be encapsulating the bad wood... I don't see any way to stop it at this point.

    Update... Well I pulled the trigger on the repair. I dug out what I could of the bad wood gave it several weeks to dry, then injected epoxy into what I could at the end. Squirted and some gap filling epoxy in there then coated the new waterproof boards with epoxy and squeezed them in the holes and screwed it all back together. It seems pretty solid and the epoxy definitely filled all the gaps so hopefully I am at least back to a solid piece at the rear where it really matters...
