I am having my boat buffed and ceramic coated, the detail team wants to remove the railing at the bow, 99 FV 270. Is it simply screwed to the deck or does it have backing plates and shouldn't be removed.  Thanks for the help here!

    Locknuts underneath. Go around the bases or tear out your interior

    You'll get 2 out of 3 of them out, the 3rd one will just spin, ask me how I know this..

    Did Ceramic on my cars and I am a believer. My black G37 looks showroom new every time I wash it, supposed to last 2-3 yrs . Boat with full detail and wet sand is $1K or so.

    As much as I understand them wanting to work n the boat without the railing, it's a major PIA to remove and replace it.  I'd get them to work around the rails.
