[Public-List] Cockpit Coaming

[j t wittbold]

Hi-
I am applying Cetol to cockpit coaming.
In the process I have removed the aging caulking  that was in place between the coaming and deck.

Questions:
1) Is this caulking a good idea in general? Does it not make it harder for the moisture that does get in there to evaporate?
2) Does anyone know whether or not this space between coaming and deck/hull was sealed in the original A30? 
3) If it is really a good idea to seal off this space, any recommended caulk for bonding Cetol coated coaming to deck?

Thanks
