I would go with Lifecaulk or Lifeseal.  4200 will work as well, if not better.  
Once you install one of these, they tend to stay in the hull a long time.

Good evening. I AM HOPING TO INSTALL A NEW THROUGH HULL TRANSDUCER this 
weekend. What marine sealant would you suggest?

 

Thank you.

I tend to agree Dwight. 

That's a gripping video and reminds me of a very similar situation I got myself 
into last year minus the crushed legs. I was being too aggressive, boats 
touched and although no protest came of it, I was at fault and should have 
bailed when I was getting squeezed out  of the pack before the committee boat. 

On the deck after the race much discussion was held and I insisted I could not 
change course for I would have rammed the committee boat but later when the 
photos came out I realized I had plenty of time to abandon the start and not 
look like a knob. 

The point is at speed within lengths of the line and adrenaline is up with a 
bunch of fast boats a nose blow apart, it's easy to make a decision that you 
wished you hadn't after the fact and unfortunately the only solution to this is 
experience. 

On the plus side the event was educational, provided lively beer talk and no 
damage was done.

Blue was close hauled with lots of power, what looks like an uncoordinated crew

she either had to tack away or risk ramming what I think is the committee boat. 
 I can’t tell if the leeward boat had room to fall off safely to avoid 
collision with blue without making a collision with the boat below her, looks 
like she was being taken up too. I heard now up now up now up now up so someone 
on Blue knew they were being taken up but I don’t think the helmsman or the 
crew acted soon enough or fast enough.  The helmsman’s effort to steer up 
seemed ineffective, not much of a rudder on that boat if you ask me.  The 
mainsail trimmer tensioned for more close hauled course and looks like the jib 
trimmer did the same…seems like the crew did not know how to sail that boat 
under those conditions in close quarters…they did not appear to know what to 
expect from the boat and the crew…if I turned the wheel that aggressively on my 
35 I feel certain she would go up, now I have to try that to find out for sure 
and ruin a perfectly nice beat some day.  Haven’t raced in a while… what is in 
the rule about barging

After the preparatory signal (boats are now racing and must sail by the racing 
rules) but before the starting signal, the leeward boat can sail all the way up 
to head to wind.  After the starting signal, she cannot sail higher than close 
hauled.  Boats must still avoid contact if at all possible.  Crossing the 
starting line has no effect on how rules 11 and 14 are applied.

Alan,

 

Does Dave Perry’s 2016 RRoS book clarify the difference, if any, between before 
the start and after crossing the starting line regarding Rule 11 and 14?

 

It has been a while since I read Dave’s last RRoS book but I recall something 
about the right-of-way boat having more flexibility before the starting gun.

Blue was allowed to sail her course until she was the give-way boat.  As soon 
as she overlapped Camelot, she was the give-way boat, and had to keep clear.  
When a give-way boat is so close to a right-of-way boat, such that the 
right-of-way boat cannot turn in either direction without immediately touching 
the give-way boat, the give-way boat has violated her obligation to keep clear. 
 They do not have to touch in order to prove that Blue did not keep clear.  See 
Dave Perry's "Understanding The Racing Rules of Sailing through 2016, page 96.  
In addition, the right-of-way boat must take the appropriate action to avoid 
hitting the give-way boat, when it appears that the give-way boat is not going 
to keep clear, after which she can protest the give-way boat.

There is no requirement for either boat to communicate with the other boat, but 
it is prudent to do so.  If Camelot had called to Blue to head up, or yelled 
"leeward boat" or "no room", it might have been enough to keep the boats from 
colliding.  If Blue couldn't control her direction, she could have called to 
Camelot to fall off, that she couldn't steer away, Camelot might have been able 
to fall off and avoid the crash.  She then could have protested Blue. Since 
both boats broke rules of part 2 of the Racing Rules of Sailing (Blue-Rule 11, 
Same tack Overlapped; Camelot-Rule 14, Avoiding Contact), both boats should 
have been penalized by retiring from the race (Rule 44.1(b).
