W/out separating it at the transom, I lifted the cap off the hull a few years back (still kickin' myself because no pics)...cut 2x4 stiff-legs about 4-6" longer to hold the cap up...added 1 1/2" strips of 3/4" starboard to inside of hull at top edge...dropped the cap back down, and ran screws thru cap and into the starboard, then sealed remaining opening w/4200 (3 tubes)...replace rub-rail...
Sounds complicated and it is involved...if you decide to do this, post here and I'll give ya some tips that'll help...but I agree w/the guys who say it really needs to be done...
