Yes very important to seal the inside diameter of the hole that the rod holder goes and mounting screws too or water will get in there and eventually rot your gunnel out.

Drilling the correct angle if using angled rod holders is equally important too. Most shops have special jigs they use to hold the hole saw at the correct angle which is almost impossible to do by eye/hand.
