Morning gang,
I'll soon be attaching various things to the inside and the outside of my boat.
Transducer mount (I plan on using sealant on all outer hull screw/holes in fiberglass). Other items requiring fasteners are, charging relay, shore charging system, stereo amp. etc. I have two types of sealant from West Marine. Can't remember their names? One is blue and the other red? I do believe one is for above water line, and one below.
My questions are,
Do I apply the sealant on everything? All the screws and bolts applied to the floor, inside the hull, motor-box, and other areas I plan on using them?
And,
How do I apply this sealant? On the end of the screw/bolt threads before installed? Drill holes and squeeze sealant into holes before hardware is installed? Carpet would make this difficult...
Thanks in advance for any advice...
