Mast/deck seal

During some rainy weather, I noted a small amount of water running down the keel stepped mast of my Bristol. When the mast was installed shortly before I bought the boat, the installer has used a putty that remains pliable & covered the outer mast & plate with a type of tape about 4" wide & seems to be slighty elastic. I'd like to replace the tape but can't seem to find any here in the NW. Anybody have a clue as to what I should be looking for? I think the water found its way down a fine groove that is in the side of the mast & past the putty.
