Just wondering,,,I have built three Pygmy's and have never used any thickener
or filler other then wood flour.  Why would you need any of these as the boat
is so well designed and light weight??

The only place I can think of would be in the bow and stern fills, but these
are not only for handle and rudder attachments, but also to help hold the bow
and stern together at a stress point, and I do seem to stress the bow by
banging it into rocks etc.
