[quote=MN3][quote]I have heard of stuffing the mast with a water "noodle" which would certainly give it flotation but I still think the best way to go is keeping the mast sealed and refining your righting techniques.[/quote]
foam will eventually get water logged from condensation - and be a pita to ever get out
[quote]I like the adhesive property of 5200 as an enhancement to the fasteners. As the base and headlock on my mast fit into the extrusion, I am not confident that I would get a proper seal with butyl rubber tape as opposed to semi liquid caulking.

what happens if you ever need to service the base and or headlock (whatever that is)?
5200 is for "forever" - not parts that may need service later[/quote]
