[C320-list] bedding compound

[Jeff Hare]

I'll second using the bomar hatch tape instead of bedding compounds.

It's really easy to apply, no mess and works great.

When you join the tape at the bottom edge of the hatch, cut the tape at an
angle and that'll create an overlapped joint that's tight and won't leak
after the hatch is tightened down.

For me, the front hatch was a single beer project.  That never happens to me
on boat projects. :)

Bomar P2000-81 hatch mounting tape is really good stuff.  It's easy to use
and doesn't make a mess.  I've used it on rebedding all my portlights.  The
33' roll goes a long way, too.  Select Plastics should have it:
