another problem I have found with 5200 is contact with fresh (not wet but fresh) bottom paint prevents 5200 from curing properly...stays gooey...

Thanks guys, skunk that's really good to know ,I'm bottom painting today actually .i ordered extra long through hull fittings last week and I just got them and they were only 2" long so they are sending me the correct fittings and I'll hold off on painting that area of the transome till after I install them! I'm sure the same thing may apply if I go with life caulk

Who did you order the bronze fittings from?

Might be good to know. I mainly order stainless steel fittings from GEMLUX.

These particular fitting I ordered from Busters marine, they are close by me in Queens ny, figured the shipping would be faster but now I'm waiting on the proper fittings to get here!
