Re: compound bedding vs. epoxy for deck hardware
Adding very little to John T's excellent suggestion, but think about
these: Bed your through bolted items in bedding compound. It's not
a place for epoxy. Also consider for those items that will carry
stress that a backing plate is provided under the deck--I think a
1/2" chunk of plywood usually does the trick, being a bit oversized
and that chunk would be epoxied to the deck above it.

If you go this route, use the blue, easy release masking tape,
burnish the edge towrd the grab rail with your fingernail--twice is
better than once--and score the varnish at the edge of the tape when
you get ready to remove the tape. All this is a fiddly job, but the
resulting look is rich and dresses the boat up wonderfully.

If you are going to counersink the bolt heads and plug the resulting hole, you will have to paint the deck or cabin top, install the grab rails (bedding compound should be used, mask, and varnish. If you go this route, use the blue, easy release masking tape, burnish the edge towrd the grab rail with your fingernail--twice is better than once--and score the varnish at the edge of the tape when you get ready to remove the tape. All this is a fiddly job, but the resulting look is rich and dresses the boat up wonderfully.

I vote for finishing bright then throughbolting. You have an oppportunity then to remove it and refinish the brightwork off the boat. Just my opinion.

Trying to look ahead to the finishing part of this project.
What is the opinion of folks as far as attaching grabrails, toerails
and the likes. I want to finish these parts bright while the deck
gets paint.
So should i finish seperately then thru bolt the brightwork into
some bedding/5200?......or epoxy it all together and then mask and
finish indipendently?
Thanks,
Jason

By all means varnish all those small bits off the boat but don't use
5200 unless you plan on not removing anything. 5200 really sticks and
if you try removing something stuck with 5200 you may also pull up the
top ply of your deck or whatever. Use a less tenacious compound. I've
taken to using old fashioned bedding compound for removable bits.
