Hey Clint,
Could be that you don't have a problem with it, and if you do it might be years. Then again it might be in weeks. Lots of factors I suspect will contribute. The way I look at is, you've fixed the problem (for now). Time to get that thing on the water and use it, knowing that if it ever does become a problem, you'll no how to fix it right the next time. In the meantime, like I said, carry a stick of aluminum epoxy, and make sure you have a bilge pump on the boat.
I'll keep my fingers crossed your ya and hope that it stays put for good! If you ever decide to do a redo on it, it won't have to be sandblasted. An angle griner or drill with wire brush attachment will take it all off.
