I think you will have no choice but to fill the holes with a kind of epoxy filler. Once this has hardened, you can then sand them down, smooth them out and then paint them the appropriate color. There is such filler (EPOXY BASE FILLER) especially for boat building and it is ready to use. ;) or...

Hudson's Bay Company, which was North America's oldest company and once owned one-third of Canada, has closed all its stores and shut down. incredible! How can anyone allow something like this to happen? These are terrible times we have to live in at the moment! WHERE is all this going to lead?
