Nice pic....

If your serious try a heat gun first hot but not cooking the paint like a torch. Next a simple torch propane no map gas. Heat it up and drive a pin through make sure no one put an e clip in the hinge. It will barely be noticeable if they did.

Next take the whole unit of and press it out with a ten ton press. Done a few but it is usually the eclip.

Best thing you can do it to take them cut the pin between each area on the tab that you can get to. Then you can remove the smaller pieces a lot easier.

I doubt you'll be able to take the transom plate off the boat, if they're anything like mine were. I beat mine through with a hammer and punch. Took a bit to get it moving.
