I looked at it closer yesterday. There are (7) screws that hold this in place; (3) along the bottom, (3) along the side, and (1) at the bottom behind the door jamb. The screws were all loose.
The thickened 'Potter Putty' that is cracked doesn't 'look' like it was meant to be anything more than a filler ? To fill up the space between the joint between the liner and the topside ? I can't see how it was meant to be have mechanical holding, as their is not prep ( sanding for mechanical hold ) of the liner surface - just smooth gelcoat... Could that be ?
Once I tightened the scows tight, all seems solid.
I think I want to grind out the old Potter goop and re-bed in some thickened epoxy anyway - seems like a good place for stiffness… I might just do the outside though -
