Not sure if brand matters but i used 1/2 * 1/8th I found a good practice is to countersink gelcoat with 5/16th and apply cone shape butyl tape to bolt.
last year I refitted deck hardware, genoa tracks and mast collar with this approach and it worked great. ________________________________ From: James Hesketh via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Sent: January 28, 2021 12:01 PM To: Stus-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: James Hesketh <jameshesk...@gmail.com> Subject: Stus-List Mounting deck hardware I'm finishing a long repainting project and will be reinstalling all my cleats, winches, tracks and such soon. Within the past few months there was a discussion about mounting deck hardware and which brand/type of Butyl Tape was preferred. I wrote it down somewhere but time and dottage has carried that note away. Could someone remind me which is the favored tape please? TIA Jim Hesketh C&C 26 Whisper Miami, FL
