I agree with Skunk. I've been trying to wean myself of the habit of always doing the hi tech costly route and overthinking stuff when fixing up a boat. A lot of times the cheap and easy works as good or better and will last longer than you will.

I remove the tank hatch every spring, inspect, clean off old sealant and reseal with SiliconeII (gutter&roofing). No need for 3M 5200/4200.

You HAVE to seal that hatch unless you want a tank like jetblue319's
