I have noticed that one of the windows in my 1990 Catalina 30 seems to leak a little. I found the problem (a screw hole is stripped out). I know that I need to fix it by drilling out the old hole, placing epoxy in it, and then re-tapping it. My question is what should I use as bedding for the screw? Other question: I have noticed that if I use a hose on my windows (these are the tinted plexiglass windows and not the opening ports) when I clean my boats that the windows will allow a little water to come in (this doesn't happen when it rains). This is only when I really have the water pressure going in a hard stream. This makes me think that I will need to, in the future, take all the screws out of the windows and re-seal the windows. How big of a job is this? What should I use to seal the plexiglass? What should I use to re-bed the screws? Any information is greatly appreciated!
