If this below the water line do not use silicone . Use something like 4200 or 5200 .
I used 5200 below water and boat life above.

Hatch is glassed and gelcoated. Will trim the glass and put aluminum trim on it in the AM. I have 1 final coat of gelcoat to put on the deck and it will be complete.

Canvas are done. And rubber gasket is done on hatch. Pickup and exhaust are drilled and set for genny. Will do the zinks and put props on today. Add the transducer for the new simrad system. Bottom is painted. And i figured out the starter issue.

Uncovered the boat yesterday. Not happy with the bow at all. Softer then i remember. That i will have to keep an eye on. Will definitely have to cut it all out and recore this winter. Im hoping it doesnt effect my season.
