This procedure works for an Albin 43:

For a Monk 36, which may or may not work for your Marine Trader, I do the 
same procedure, only on the top rail. Once the screws are out, pull the 
upper half of the door hard and outwards to free it and top rail from the 
hull, being sure the rail doesn't fly into the water, and lift up.

Reverse the process to install. Sometimes I had to use a hammer and wood 
block to convince the rail it was going back into its original position.
