Wood filler

Right to the point... there is what looks to be a tan color wood-filler on the cedar planks of my 12ft TVT. Should I remove the filler during the stripping process? If so, how would I do that?

Short shaft -vs- long

Besides the obvious... What is the difference between the short shaft engines and long? What would one recommend with a 12 ft TVT Hydro or runabout? Im looking to purchase a vintage Evinrude or Johnson and want to be sure I have the correct shaft. **THANKS**
