I think I am going to attach it to the hull and not the cap? Both maybe? Input would be appreciated. Anything that comes to everyone's mind. No bad ideas.

Anchor hanger. Putty all the corners smooth, then tape the whole thing. I don't have a great feeling about this one.

Lots of corners, crevices, tight spots to try and glass there. I've never had much luck with wood longevity in these situations unless each part was coated, glassed, then assembled.
Is that 1x4 going to stay as part of the permanent build? Looks like its yellow pine? If so might want to rethink that, probably won't last long. Spruce or Hickory would be better water resistant.

The wood will not be part of it. I am going to put packing tape all over the wood and use it as a mold. The wings on the side will be where the anchor hangs from.

Hopefully I can get the mold out of it
