I would think hard before using 5200; the blasted stuff gives a far
more permanent bond than you probably want. If the cleat _ever_ needed
replacing again, you (or a later owner) would get plenty of cursing
practice. I use silicon sealant, but there are other choices. Consult
a West or BOAT/US catalog.
