Doug,

I have to agree with Donovan. On the first boat I built, I used wood flour and epoxy to fill the voids, and it turned out just fine. On the second boat, I thought I'd be smarter than that and used colored wood fillers. I cringe when I look at that boat because it's very obvious that I used a wood filler, and it looks sloppy. By the third boat, I avoided the problem altogether by improving my workmanship. Good luck!
