I painted a thin line around the corner on the outside where the glass meets the frame. It is not invisible like the Creeping Crack Cure, but it beats getting dripped on every night, it was about aimed to land right on my head ☹ Anyway, if you want it to not really show you might get an artistic fine point brush instead of the one it comes with. This is what I used: https://www.westmarine.com/buy/west-marine--liquid-electrical-tape--544171?recordNum=3 It was sitting around from when I used it on the back of a switch in the engine room.

Outside I'm guessing not inside?

I have been sealing them with Creeping Crack Cure to good effect, but one corner of one hatch just would not quit dripping. I just happened to have some Liquid Rubber for electrical connections sitting around and had an idea. I painted a thin line on the leaky corner and problem solved! It doesn't even look too horrible on the black hatch frame. I am not sure I would do this on a new-ish hatch, but if yours are due for new glass anyway this seems to be a decent stop-gap.
