: I use Goop brand Marine Goop for stitch holes and deck lines. Seems
: to stick well, and it doesn't seem to yellow like Aqua Seal does
: when exposed to the sun. Also, sets up firm, yet still flexible.

I've been using Goop for years in a wide variety of applications and really love the stuff. 13 years ago I used it to help fasten a shower fixture and there is no signs of failure.

According to the website it is paintable. The only difference between the Marine and the "regular" Goop is that the marine has UV protection.

I'm leaning towards the Goop right now - better the devil ya know. I'll just put a small dab in the larger holes.

By the way, I'm really pushing the limits of the carrying capacity of my boat, so it's deck will be fairly wet. It will also only be paddled in the ocean which means waves. Plus, I am hoping it turns out to be nice boat for rolling, so that means it will be spending a fair bit of time upsidedown. I guess I'd better make sure them seams are tight!!!
