It is a lot of effort but, you'd never have to worry about it leaking back into the deck. Just that fact that it is trough bolted moves the path of least resistance below the deck. I just did this process for 6 deck hatches! took me 5 boat weekends! now that I'm done, I'm happy I took the time and did it right. I'd hate to think I took a 36 year old dry deck and ruined because of careless hardware bedding...

Also, don't for get to countersink the holes, even if you do just screwing it to the deck.

That could work.

It sure would be easier to get it back off if I ever have to.

    Questions - the new vent does not fit into a deck plate, it is
    designed to
    mount directly to the deck. They suggest using silicone caulk. I
    already
    have 4200, would that work? Also I my experience, something with
    that much
    flat surface against the deck is going to be very well glued on by the
    caulk. I doubt it will ever come loose unless I run a blade under
    it, so do
    I need to bother with the mounting screws into the deck?
