Some time ago, it seemed fairly recent but was not able to find the post now, a member mention that when he was redoing his toe rail it took him approx two hours to get 1 of the eight sections off. His answer to the amount of time spent was "screw this, I'm going to cut them all off and just replace them with new ones. He advised he got the remaining 7 toe rail off in two hours and just replaced them with new ones. To me, genius, but I might be missing something.
Question is, has anyone replaced the toe rails on their boats? What might I be missing? I'm concerned about the curve of the rail to match the beam of the boat. Will standard teak bend easily? When reattaching, should I use butyl tape to reseat? Cloes review of the original installation looks like there was no sealant or caulking done.
