My first inclination was to say, "use whatever keelguard recommends."

Then I googled and saw this (you may have already seen):

Cool

My personal opinion. If you want to remove it at some time in the future use 4200. If you want it to hold forever use 5200. That stuff will hold just about anything. (Make sure you wear disposable gloves.. no matter how hard you try, you WILL get some on your hand is you don't).

I think even if you use 5200 you’ll be able to remove it by sliding a sharp putty knife between the keel guard and hull. I don’t personally have much experience removing stuff installed with 5200 though.

Thanks guys. Ultimately- I'll probably go with the 5200. At this point, half my boat is made of 5200.

Just an FYI. They do make a solvent for 5200.
