That's great information!

Thanks!

I'm also very fortunate that the ships store at our marina is very well stocked 
as well

That is already well underway!

I already prepped the penetrations and just have to seal them with the epoxy.

The plan is to get to all of them within the next few years.  i did the all the 
pens at the bow last year and added backing plates to everything.  This year is 
handrails and cabin top traveler.

If you have balsa cored decks the extra time to seal the bolt hole with epoxy 
is a good investment.

Hello again,

As i'm getting closer to installing my new handrails, I have grown concern 
regarding the bedding compound.  My old handrails were lag screwed from the 
bottom.  I like this approach as it makes installing finished handrails a much 
less time consuming job.  There would be no need for plugging, sanding and 
re-finishing the plugs after installation.  I wanted to re-bed them using the 
method described on http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/rebedding_hardware.  
However, the more I think about it, using the Butyl tape doesn't lend itself 
very well to using lag screws.  It seems to me you don't want the bolt/screw 
turning, as it would grab the Butyl and pull it out of place.  You know, that 
stuff likes to stick to itself and everything else.  

Wouldn't turning the lag bolt mess up the nice cone shaped blob you place for 
the countersink area?

 ... Am I overthinking this? 

 ...should I go back to jolly 'ol 5200?

....should I reconsider through bolts and plugs and then have to deal with 
refinishing the plug areas.  I wouldn't mind but, the need to re-coat 8 times 
at 1 time per 24hrs really makes it tedious.  Especially, when it takes me 40 
minutes to get to the boat.  Thats not much fun after work every day.  1 1/2 
driving for 20 minutes of coating, not to mention the gas...LOL

As always, I appreciate any and all opinions and insights,

Danny
