Are the backing plates for the screws that secure the flybridge glassed in place?

I'm from the sailing side of the Cape Dory so I know nothing about the backing plate, but in New Kent I have seen warter standing where I have never seen water stand before, for months. Dennis

They are permanently affixed to the underside of the cabin roof.

They are aluminum strips, correct? Are they visible when you remove the headliner?
