    Would prefer to try to get rid of it intact if possible.

    Where I'm at, as long as the boat wasn't ever registered in NV we can take them to the dump whole. If it was I just scrap off the reg. And they don't say anything. They sit at my house until its full of trash then I take it to the dump tho.
