I have an old Taylor Made hatch above the v-berth of my 2310 that has a bad water leak when it rains. The past few times it rained the water just seemed to come pouring in , fortunately my cushions are still inside from winter. I checked and the bedding of the frame seems to be fine and not leaking there. I purchased some new gasket material to replace the D-Gasket that seals the top (hinged) frame against the screwed in part against the deck. However, in the process of fixing this yesterday, I made it worse because the glass came loose from the glazing while I was cleaning the glue residue from the gasket.
Result; I now have a hatch frame in place with no glass and have still not finished the d-gasket replacement. I need to get the glass back in and glazed ASAP. Any suggestions PLEASE on what type of silicone / glazing I need to use and any instructions for putting the glass back in the frame??? I need to get this done before it rains again. The old glazing that peeled right out was black. I have never worked on hatches before, any guidance is appreciated. Thank You in advance!
