B28 cockpit rail removal

Post by kross1 »

Hey All
Has anyone removed the cockpit rail on the B 28 the ones that run from side of the boat and wrap around to the engine box. If so likes, dislikes. Any pictures would be great.

Peter,

After I removed the rails, I made a day bed on the stbd motor. Great for cruising and at port.
Then, after I altered the ladder, I can store my un-inflated dinghy under it, and by just flipping it upwards I can have access to the port engine.
Anyway it was a good decision to get rid of the rails, I hesitated in the beginning, but once done it's much more practical

First 6 pics below:
