Can you upload some pictures? Those will help a ton.

Taking the cap off is always an option but I'd avoid if you can.

If you have to break up your board into a few pieces, you'll want to layer it so you get a nice, strong, and even pressured fit.

I'm a great believer in poured transoms (CarbonCore CarbonBond or Seacast) -rather than using wood again.
