I just fill the weave on the "floor" from the seat forward to the foot area.

You carry a lot of sand into the boat on your feet and it also helps with sliding into the boat.
If you look at old wood kayaks, all the wear is near the foot area.

I also varnish my interior around the cockpit area where it sometimes bakes in the sun on a summer day.
