Hatch delamination - fill with silicone?

A small length (about 4 inches) of the upper left hatch seal on my 85.5 is beginning to delaminate. Still watertight, but the noise is driving me crazy!

The actual delamination is, thankfully, happening very slowly - in fact I have not noticed any real increase in this over the past two or so years.

Question: as a temporary measure...could I simply fill this gap with some silicone caulking/sealant to quiet things down a bit - and perhaps even slow the delamination process? Has anyone tried this?
