Last spring I installed new brass opening ports from NewFound Metals of Port Townsend, WA. (awesome!-pics avail on request) Bones Bowden and I did the install, STAY AWAY from 100% silicone. You want a Polysulfide-based sealant. It bonds best to various surface energy levels, and remains flexible when cured. We used BoatLife, but 3M 100 would work too. Look in BoatUS or WestMarine catalog under Polysulfide and go from there. Good Luck and HNY!
