The screws didn't go all the way through the hull? If not, you could fill with some 3M 5200 from the inside.

Good luck!

If they are just "punch through's" you can just clean up the outside and marine tex them. Makes for a small patch.

yeah they are just screw size holes, didn't think it was a huge deal but it was a decent reason to start posting on the board's. Thank's i'll look into the marine tex. Sound's like a quick fix.

ok ive tried that stuff before and didnt have alot of luck with it... probably cuz i didnt read the directions lol no if its a hole well a hole is a hole is ahole. if you get to it from the inside then great use some resin/glass and be done with it
