I would be a little nervous they wouldn't be sturdy enough. Typically you will see a V-roller with a post on the inside of the hulls. The post will either have a small roller on it or it will support a treated 2x4 that has outdoor carpet on it.

The post will support any major side to side loads and the v- roller will support the weight of the bows and allow for a snug tie down..

The bow stop isn't really meant to support the weight of a boat. Not is it meant to have the load dragged across it.
