Strip: Spots??

Hello All,
Had a good time at the cape, weather very hot. The Guillemot broke out in a "Heat Rash".. Litle spots in the dark wood areas. I can actually feel the spots. They look like the weave of the 'glass is poking through.
What is this? I'm gonna sand it down to see if I need to re epoxy/varnish..or what.. Is this avoid-able? The hatch gasket retainers (Glass Built) also softened and are now bent in some. How do I get them back to shape?? Could I wait to do repairs till the winter?
Thanx, Steve
