lowering your bow rail
I know a few people here have chopped down the bow rail and I've been wanting to do the same. Is it as simple as just cutting off a couple of inches off the upright mounts? I basically want to lower it to 1/2, or slightly less, than the height it is now. It appears that if it gets lowered it will also need to move back [toward the windshield] a bit. The more I stare at it the more confused I get. I just don't want to open a can of worms and mistakenly change the geometrics of everything and having it not work at all. Also, is the rail one solid piece? I've got the standard stock rail [86 cuddy] w/ the four up-right supports. Each support has a "T" or three way fitting and is screwed together which, to me, suggests that they are individual pieces. Screwed together doesnt sound like it would be to strong but it is very sturdy.....like it could be one piece. Anyway, I'm looking for a little more input before I jump into this. Thanks fellas.
