I've filed deck hikes with epoxy and topped with gelcoat. You could also just bed a bolt with a dresser washer that's a good temp fix.

That way my settee below doesn’t get soaked each rainfall during our Vancouver winter. In hindsight I realize you can’t paint silicone and that clear Life Caulk doesn’t match the deck. So is it better to do a job like this with epoxy? I.E. dig out the old silicone and replace with epoxy that matches the deck color (in spring of course)? I used what I had. The actual core along these deck supports on either side need to be cut out and replaced, but presentation is everything until I can get to that list item.
