Pictures of said boat might help get you some better advice.

One of the problems - besides the solid waste component of old boats - are integral fuel tanks. Emptying old fuel and properly disposing of these tanks cost money. Some disposal facilities will require proof the boat doesn’t have fuel/wastewater tanks.

If you’re handy, you could rent a dumpster and cut the boat up with a sawzall. It might be a bit cheaper than having someone haul it whole.

Fairhaven (68 Main Street) and Acushnet (176 S Main St) are old style ones. They are both on small parcels, so I doubt they can go through a rehab/update similar to the new ones. They both smell horrific inside too.

My brother worked with your Dad, and said he was one of his favorite people to work with. He was on this job most of the summer, but got laid off last week for the winter. He’s bummed about this. Very sorry for your loss.

Co-hog is the correct pronunciation and any other iteration marks you as a rank amateur.

Sorry, but this just isn’t true. Coyotes are somewhat of a newcomer to Massachusetts and the Northeast as a whole. They started being documented here in the mid 1900s. You could certainly argue that the actions of people since colonization caused the reduction of other apex predators which ultimately allowed coyotes to fill the gap, but to think that human “encroachment” is “pushing them out” is simply incorrect. They are highly opportunistic and have expanded their population largely due to human influence like the availability of food sources we unintentionally provide them.
