[Public-list] cockpit coamings.

[Bill Ydel]

I used the D shaped closed cell weather stripping from Home Depot. It comes
with peal off adhesive, is flexible enough to go around corners and keeps my
posterior dry when the deck gets wet. Not very nautical but it works.

Use Bedding Compound

I have removed and re bedded my coamings a couple of times and have used 
bedding compound, not caulk to replace them.  Dolfinite is the premium 
brand and is priced rather high.  I believe either Petit or Interlux 
also makes a bedding compound which is about half the price and 
according to the restoration experts I have talked with around here, 
there is not much difference between the brands.

One quart will do both coamings.  Simply take a putty knife and spread 
the compound on the fiberglass service, place and bolt down the coamings 
making sure the excess compound squeezes out along all exposed seams and 
wipe off the excess compound.  Very easy and clean job.
