How do I mount the deck onto the hull of my ship?

I'm wanting to mount the Deck of my Surcouf to the hull and I'm wondering how I should do it...suggestions?

 

I use water proof marine epoxy, stuff that will cure underwater.

 

Sub Deck to hull...
Deck to sub deck, the whole proccess if possible...

 

on my cargo ship, i screwed it on

 

First of all, some terminology clarification. Make sure we're all using the same words for the same thing, right?

1) deck. The wooden plate that goes over the top of the ship, generally to slow water from coming in.

2) sub-deck. the part of the hull that the deck rests on. It has the same outline as the deck, but goes beneath it, hence the name sub-deck.

3) cap-rail. On inlaid decks, the caprail is the railing that goes along the outside of the deck to hold it in place. If you view a cross-section of an inlaid deck, the sub-deck and cap-rail form an L shape. The sub-deck is the bottom of the L, and the cap-rail is the vertical part.

next, I'd like to know what you're looking for from your deck. Do you simply want a splash-resistant seal? A water-resistant seal for up to 30-second submersions? Or a truly water-tight seal suitable for extended dives? Different seals require different techniques. Answer this question and you'll get a far more useful answer.
