thanks in advance. im swaping a alpha to a bravo what sealant is best to seal transom plates to hull. most marine "sillycone" is not recomended for below waterline use . I'm stumped. any advice?
thanks Don possibly jumped the gun alpha is off the boat and I found sealer all around the mating edge of the outer transom plate did not know ther is a gasket in the bravo unit its still on the donor boat.learn much every day here!
Sealant around a transom shield usually indicates a feeble attempt to fix a leak due to a rotten transom. Or someone installing a transom shield without a new seal and hoping it doesn't leak.
The transom shield is like a big soft rubber oring, About 3/4" in diameter.
