selene:
Personally I used butyl tape, after reading articles such as this one: http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/rebedding_hardware. Adhesion and flexibility - I am increasingly using it for bedding. Silicon caulking also works fine.

It's only been a couple of years, but seems to work well.  BTW, reversing the main cabin's hatch was an easy job, and personally I prefer it that way.  Catches the wind from either direction, and can often be left open when underway without catching spray!
