In Response To: Other: Sealing deck rigging screws (Brian T. Cunningham)

I have drilled my screw holes a little larger than the screw. Then apply epoxy to the hole and let dry. The hole then should be small enough so that the screw that you use is self tapping and snug. I haven't had any leaks through my screws.
