I can't believe how much water was inside......
I bought some goop at home depot it doesn't say marine goop I guess I'll put a light coat on all the eyelets and rivets can't do anything about the hatch seal unless they sell another one I probably should have just put silicon sealer it stays soft and you can redo it goop is more like glue,it get hard .
At least there's no crack to weld.

It works great, i use it all the time. I even mounted my transducer( electrical conduit ) to the inside of my hull with it and it sold as a rock and holds water all day with no leaking!
