Could there have been bug larvae in the wood that hatched and made it their feast until they hit epoxy? Also rot resistance is greater in heartwood than in sapwood.
As for the holes in the bow/stern, I drill them oversized, fill with epoxy, and then glue in place black plastic (nylon?) piping for abrasion resistance.
