Last year I started removing the tow rails on Ergo and I cannot describe how much I REGRET this decision and I miss the toe rail. I have only remove the starboard side. My solution for replacing the toe rail is to glass in ½ inch rounds, which after completion of the first one looks nice and is more comfortable for hiking.

Personally I would NOT recommend removing the toe rails at all.
