My$0 .02. I cut my bow rail so I could get the v in the garage (7ft ht x 16 ft wide door) I had to cut a section out of the middle as the reduction in height, 6 inches, also moved the rail back a bit, AND changed the needed curve for the bow. I also ended up cutting off the 5 degree attachment points near the cockpit, as the fittings there changed also. I used furniture type nylon plugs. I am OK with it, its a fishing boat.
BUT if you have the tools, or a muffler or pipe shop near by, you might be able to bend the ends downward and use base rail hardware to attach them to the deck. if it don't work cut em off.
