Saddle Installation Introduction

Seakeeper recommends a slow curing, non-sagging structural adhesive for bonding the saddles to the GRP hull structure. Such an adhesive is Plexus MA590 which is a two-part methacrylate adhesive. Details of the bonding procedure in this manual will involve the Plexus MA590 product, but that should not exclude other suitable adhesives the installer chooses to use. See Sheet 5 of Seakeeper Drawing No. 90545 – Seakeeper 16/18 Bond-In Installation Details for loads information and recommended adhesive properties.
