Leaks

We had about an inch of rain on Thanksgiving. I’ve discovered a few leaks in the cabin top as a result. One is through a screw hole that is missing a screw. It’s supposed to be holding down the starboard hatch slide.

Another leak is coming down a bolt for the starboard cabin top rail. Here’s the photographic evidence:

This next photo is pretty blurry, but it’s supposed to show the water that is still under the cabin rails. This is after several hours in the sun. See the shiny water?

So it looks like I need to remove the cabin rails and the hatch slides and find something to seal the screw and bolt holes. Is there special marine caulk for this? Suggestions welcome in Comments.
