The same tape is also available at Hamilton Marine, and possibly
Defender. The Brand name is Bed-It. Not the same as similar looking
butyl tape found in autoparts or home improvement stores.

if you plan to use butyl tape, I would strongly recommend trying Maine
Sail’s product. I think he ships it free in the US. In Canada, the cost
of shipping is somewhat prohibitive (if I recall, the s&h would be more
then the tape itself). But it is possible to make a bigger order and share.
I got his product and I am happy. Of course, ymmv.

After using _Butyl tape_ for the first time on my dodger window install,
I follow the recommendation of so many folks I met in Canada last summer
and would encourage you to try this product for hatches windows or any
of the deck sealant issue you might have. The savings in clean up alone
is immense and I think it makes for a much more dependable seal. As for
the life of the product, I am only onto it about 2 weeks, but everyone I
met last summer were really hyped up about it. Marine stores have it
(West Marine will order it), but ebay has various colors and thicknesses
for mucho cheaper. I made quite an investment in my 20 foot roll,

We installed new cabin windows about 6 years ago......it's not rocket
science but it was labor intensive. I am assuming your windows are
flush with the side of the cabin top with no frames and/or screws or
other fasteners....that the way they are on the 32's . Our windows
leaked and the only sure way to stop it was to replace them.
Some time back, I posted on this list, the step by step process we
used however it is not on my new laptop ......I will check to see if
it is still on my old laptop and send it to you.
Where is your boat now?

Sorry about the reply on the last thread I could hardly follow
the replys and I know better. The ports are as you described sealed
into a moulded recess on the cabin top. I think actually from your
description now I understand how they will come out.
I am doing a complete refit of the boat so I will add it to the list
of projects. Although the refit is mostly done.
Mike, we bought Silver Tassie last fall. No comments please on
her condition. :)
