Can the rod holder in the gunnel be removed?

While fishing with a pole in the rod holder, one of the rod holder caps broke off. I was able to get a replacement from my dealer. I removed the three screws in the holder but I can't remove the rod holder. I tried using a screwdriver and all I did was dent the boat. Next, I put a flat piece of steel on the gunnel and again used a flat blade screwdriver to pry the rod holder up. Still can't get if off. Has anyone ever removed a rod holder before? If so, what was the Magic trick?
