splitting the deck and the hull

My guillemot expedition single has started to delaminate on the inside of the hull, due to airbubbles under the glass. During the last paddle trip it came water under the weave. Fortunately this happened in the cockpit where I can reach and fix it. But what if it happens in the ends where I can`t reach. I don`t want my kayak to break in the north-atlantic on the coast of northern Norway.(Who wants ??) My question is; have anyone tried to split the deck an the hull an reglass the hole inside of the hull?
