The hardest part of replacing a main bulkhead is getting the plywood into the cabin through the companionway, and getting access to the hull and deck on both sides of the new bulkhead to properly tab in the new bulkhead. Typically getting the plywood below decks means that you end up building the bulkhead out of multiple pieces of plywood that are less than 2- 2 1/2 feet wide depending on the width of the companionway, and laminating the bulkhead out of plywood that is half the thickness of the bulkhead so that you can stagger the joints. The repair technique really depends on your goals for the repair and your skills.
