This week: More boat maintenance! After asking all of you last week what kind of sealant we should use to re-bed the windows on our 40ft sailboat, we went out and bought the most recommended option, which was Butyl tape! And then added a couple of other options because.....well, we could. We used Fischer Marine Sealant and the cheapest silicone we could find. We've had plenty of experience with Sikaflex at this point and opted to leave it out of the mix. We went for this triple pronged approach to see which adhesive we liked the best for a marine environment, considering we needed to adhere a very oily wood to fibreglass to glass. I hope this video might be a useful rough guide to anyone considering resealing their own windows (or a disgraceful example if you are an industry professional that might do things a little neater). The one thing we can be sure of after this- all the windows are watertight for the time being (based on the last couple of downpours). Feel free to leave comment for how you may have done it different so myself and others can read and become a little wiser. Boat window restoration of the incompetent crew kind. A boatlife vlog of the most mundane sort of boatwork there is. As always, thanks for being here!
