It did Greg....so far. I was skeptical that it would actually hold given Starboard's inherent non-stickiness. I applied the 5200 very generously on the back as well as the visible bead you can see in the picture along the edge. The 5200 seems to have bridged the little gap created by the fiberglass moulding's texturing. The two pieces that provide the backing for the electric pump and heat exchanger are new with the FWC install. However the piece in the back with the heavy bronze Groco raw water strainer mounted to it is not. I would feel confident recommending the technique since that heavy strainer hasn't budged in years now. The respective parts are attached to the Starboard using stainless steel lag screws.
