There is a split opinion on using silicon on deck hardware. I believe that butyl tape is best. But not all butyl tape was created equal. If you want to go that way, I suggest using Compass Marine (I think $25 for 2 rolls that would let you bed the entire deck to hull joint).

I used Lifecaulk when replacing Mojito's hatches about four years ago and it worked fine, but have been using 4200 for all deck hardware since on advice from a couple of yards.

Which sealant should I use? Sikaflex, Lifecaulk, something else? I need to overdrill, epoxy and redrill the new screw holes, correct?
