I have a 94 4000 that I installed a new windlass last year and had to fill two holes. When we drilled the new holes with a hole saw the plugs that came out were solid.I was happy to see that because I've heard different stories of soft decks in that area!

The rot on mine was so bad it was difficult to really know where the greatest water infiltration was coming from. The factory installed Maxwell windlass was set with the rubber gasket and no sealant at all. The deck switches for the windlass must’ve been removed prior to my ownership as they looked like they were both installed with bathtub caulking.
