if always had the cockpit cover on and the snaps go over the windshield I have the boat home now with the camper top on raining all day and I see a leak in the cabin that must be coming from where the windshield meets the deck ...... any suggestions should I remove the headliner and take alook or try to seal from the outside . I read these boats are prone to dry rot in that area

    Yes, pull the seal out of the lower windshield frame and reseal the screws.

    It is a slow process. You need to remove each screw and rebed them with caulk, then put them back in. Do not use 5200. Use 4000UV.
