ride plate bolt hole fill

[Ruff Cut]

So, I was under my new to me 2006 RXP filling in a few scratches. I have read where some members fill in their ride plate bolt holes to make a smoother bottom. What should I use to fill with? Something that can be removed when needed.

Any 2part marine epoxy. I used the stick with one part surrounding the other. First wrap/stuff some twine around the bolt's head. Then break off a lil bit of epoxy, kneed then stuff into depression. Let dry then sand.

Correct.

Don't forget to flush the grate and fill those holes as well.
