Of course that begs the obvious question. .

Whats up?

Well, I just spent the day removing 5200 that was used to seal all the portholes, all 4 of them.

LOL!

OK, you have the right to be frustrated!

My PO used white silicone to fill the entire circumference of the hull / deck interface. It leaks everywhere. I'll be using similar adult language soon too.

I already went through that when I bought the boat. Removing the toe rails and removing all the silicone was a very frustrating job.

in my experience, I'd rather deal with 5200 than sillycone!

If you didn't notice your last post was your 100th... good for you.

I'm dealing with a few missed steps by an unknown PO myself. I'll need to take a photo of one of them... words I feel would fail to convey my sentiments. :evil:

So this begs a question. Those users who bed portlights in 5200 burn in hell as do those who use sillycone and there arent enough kids in the neighborhood to chew the amount of gum I would require to bed 6 lights. What sealing product should one use?

That's the way I'm going. I couldn't find it locally, so I guess I have to get it online.

OOOH, I re-did two port holes in 5200 on my C22. Guess I'll have to keep her forever now so as not to impose my error on some innocent future owner. :oops:

Hey it was done in 5200 by the PO when I got her. I thought that's what your suppose to do. Oh well I'll fix her up again this spring, YEA! :P

Thanks
Alan

Butyl tape. You can find it online or from RV places. It's great stuff!
