I have been using a one inch and a one an a half inch wood chisel along with a medium size wrecking bar. Broke down a bought a new 1.5" chisel, hope it helps. Also have a 0* cut off tool that helps a lot, just slow. If I push it too hard it will cook the cutting teeth. At thirty something a pop for the blades I'm trying to use only the $100 worth I have already bought.
To break things up I plan to work on the transom until I get tired of it then work ont he live well, doing glass work.
Not going to worry about the transom, just keep plodding along until its done.
With all the boards skin coated things should move along well after the transom is out. Especially since my neighbor TA has offered to help with the glass work on the weekends. He is a joy to watch doing glass work, much faster and better than me in all respects.
When it comes time to remove the cap I have three people lined up to help, hope that's enough. Don't have a large flat area so will have to make something in the back yard for that part of the project.
Thanks for the support and comments.
