How do you get the rigid vinyl to make the tight bend at the transom?

Well my transom is flat across the top unlike the rest of the boat which has a lip where the top liner is joined to the boat, this is just the way we did it when we enclosed it. So the lip of the rub rail had to be removed to get it to lay flat on the transom. Removed the red area below just along the transom.
Dremel with a cutting bit made short work of the lip. Removing this also took a lot of the rigidity out of the rail. After that it was a matter of pulling the rail around the bend while lightly heating it with a heat gun, also the occasional rubber mallet knock to keep it tight.
