Im getting ready to haul out in a few weeks and drop keel and install some good backing plates. In preparation for new backing plates i need to be able to grind out a bunch of the old crush filler they added in the bilge around the bolts. My bilge is a bout a foot deep and about six or so inches wide, but there are areas in the aft end of bilge that tapper to only about 1.5" wide that would need to be cleaned up as well (see pic). I need to get down about 1/4" or so into this substrate, so it need to be fairly aggressive ground out. An angle grinder is simply too wide to get to most of the areas. Whatever i use must be fairly narrow. As of right now. the only tool i can think of that will be able to work is one of these minus the handle.
.
I'm wondering if anyone knows of a tool or attachment that might work better/faster? I would like the final surface to be relatively flat so i can properly bed under the stainless backing plates with epoxy and finally sika flex.
