There are what appears to be a socket for something to attach to. They are about 1/2in high and about 2in long. They are riveted along each side inside the hull. They stick out about 3/4 in. Up near the top . There are 6 or maybe 8 of them spaced apart along each side. Any clue what they could be ?

To hold the wood or plastic bows to prevent water from accumulating on a boat cover.
