I got a crazy bug a few months ago to install a weather station at my yacht club, Pontchartrain Yacht Club on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain at Mandeville, LA. There were no wind stations anywhere close to my club. There are some wind data/forecasts available through premium wind services

You're going to get a lot of recommendations for different sources/brands/prices. Personally, I've had good experience with 3M butyl tape purchased at a local auto parts store that specializes in material for automotive body shops. Over the years I've gone through two complete boxes of the stuff

On Windburn the external rails are held down using SS hanger bolts. They are convenient to lay a bead of butyl around while installing. So far ( 17 years ) no concern with strength. The inside rail has a long screw that goes through the cabin top and into the external rail. Michael Brown

I did this on my 79 30 Mk 1 also. A small flathead screwdriver in the hole will hold the nut from turning . If you are sealing the outer rails with 4200 or similar do not over-tighten the handrails . Just snug enough to squeeze a bit of sealant out then let it cure . Snug up after it has cured
