I didn’t remove the cap, I cut and removed the deck. Kept the boat on the trailer, raised the boat slightly to level it. Supported the hull with 8ft 2 x 4s along the keel, chines and strakes. I used the trailer frame and cinder blocks on the ground as the base to support the 8ft 2 x 4s. I used a combination of 2 x 4s and plywood on top of the rollers where they were not against the hull. Prob overkill but that’s the way I prefer it.
