Rich,
The previous owner of my 79 FBC often had grand-children aboard. For more security he added a full cockpit surround of teak railing on 4" high stainless steel stanchions. Total is about 6" of additional height. Every stanchion is secured with four screws through each base plate.
When ever I have the temptation to remove the rail, I just think about all those holes that have to be filled! If you consider adding a railing, think of this down the road. Probably the best solution would be to just go to teak cover boards all around.
I've gotten used to the railing and it does add a little security.
Jerry
