I 'll be using pine on my next kayak as well. Just curious whether you filled the gaps with epoxy mixed with pine wood dust. Because that's what I did on the 2 WRC canoe hulls so far: mixing dust from the same wood in the filler epoxy. The result is a much darker fill, compared with WRC. If that 's the case with pine, it would show up much more because the pine strips are so pale.

Beautiful boat you got there !
