Getting started

I have a question for "EBEACH" and "and then some"
(everyone else chime in too!!)

Most of the transom repairs I have seen show the entire "cap" removed from the boat and then the inner liner is cut back what ever distance is needed to complete repairs(depending on how bad the rot is!).

and then some---seemed to cut the cap and remove only a small portion instead of removing the entire thing. Giving him access to the front of the transom. Does that decrease the integrity of the cap and the boat????
Would you just glass up and flare the area you cut through???

Has anyone else done this???

Thanks,
Pat
