Counter sinking screw holes as a repair?

Good morning folks,

As I take stuff off of the hull that is outdated, there are several screw holes that need to be covered.

at least a few will be under the water line.

My thoughts are to counter sink the hole in order to put a screw with 4200 back in it's place. Hopefully leaving a flush surface.

thoughts on this, or other simple fixes to the holes?

Counter sinking is a good Idea but I would not put a screw in the hole, I would use a epoxy or fiberglass fuller then sand and paint or touch up
