Fred, I don’t know about 1986 builds but I can assure you that 1982 builds were fully bedded using butyl. Right now I am in the process of cleaning up all the removed deck hardware on our 1982 C&C 37. Butyl in overwhelming amounts. Everything was bedded with it.
For which I am grateful. It is a great bedding compound. I’ve had virtually now soft spots. I just ordered a couple of rolls of it from Maine Sail. If you are pulling hardware and re-bedding, use the butyl. Your best friend for cleaning up the old butyl is #3M Specialty Adhesive Remover, #38984. Melts the old butyl away.
