I've filed deck hikes with epoxy and topped with gelcoat.  You could also just 
bed a bolt with a dresser washer that's a good temp fix.

Stus-List 81' C&C 30 - removed a winch,
  filling deck holes for winter 
In an effort to reduce constant dripping from a neglected winch fastened to my 
deck support along-side the mast (common on the 80’ MK2) I removed it, cleaned 
with Acetone and filled the holes with Life Caulk. That way my settee below 
doesn’t get soaked each rainfall during our Vancouver winter. In hindsight I 
realize you can’t paint silicone and that clear Life Caulk doesn’t match the 
deck. So is it better to do a job like this with epoxy? I.E. dig out the old 
silicone and replace with epoxy that matches the deck color (in spring of 
course)? I used what I had.

The actual core along these deck supports on either side need to be cut out and 
replaced, but presentation is everything until I can get to that list item.
