I have used both polysulfide sealer and butyl tape to keep water out of the cabin from gear mounted on the cabin or deck. I prefer butyl tape because it is less messy and easy to remove.
My question is why not use something like flexible rubber, plastic or cork sheets to provide a flexible, waterproof seal? Since these are not used, there must be some problem with them like heat, sun exposure, etc., but with today's modern materials, it seems that butyl tape or a goo like something out of a tube is so last century. OTOH, maybe last century is as good as it gets with this technology. Thoughts from the group?
