Hi Gordon...
It appears your bow rail was bedded with 5200. A polyurethane adhesive.
That stuff is brutal and we only use it for Hull/Deck Joints on the Nor'Sea
and on underwater thru hulls...etc. We also have been busy re- building several
older Nor'Seas and we ran into the same problem. What we use (besides a good,
thin, wide and flexible putty knife) is a product called Debond 2000. It loosens
the bond and does not harm the Gelcoat. Here is the Link:

Use BOATLIFE CAULK when you rebed and don't forget to bed under the
bolts heads and use new stainless lock nuts.
