Default Disposing of old boat in WA state?

Ahoy, I can't even give the Buccaneer 210 away and I feel like I've
abused my landlord's generosity enough. It's on a serviceable trailer
in our yard. Does anyone know who to contact about getting rid of a
dirty old boat? Thanks as always.

I got rid of a lawn mower with a bent shaft by hanging a "for sale" sign on
it and leaving it out over night....
Have you tried donating it to a youth group or charity? Too ugly for that?

And someone stole it? Brilliant. People have started leaving junk at
the end of their driveways around here with a free sign on it to avoid
a dump fee. This can backfire as neighbors drop their stuff off when
no one's looking.

Yes, it was born ugly but I used it for almost 20 yrs I now realize.
It has some kind of leak around the windows which admits enough water
to softened up the cabin floor and has wicked into the cored area
below the waterline and that hideous carpeting around the floor. The
outside hull is stained with a black mold on one side and green mold
on the other. Half a day with the pressure washer usually gets rid of
this around here. Whoever wanted it would need a jib; the main's fine.
A fussy person would paint it, I suppose.

Hi Ray,
Sounds ugly, but still probably make some young guy very proud "look at the
cool boat I got for free, just needs a little cleaning..."!

Hey, if WA wasn't so far from TX, I'd go get it, and I'm 54 years old! ;-)

My agency would take it and you'd get some sort of tax deduction.
Unfortunately, we're too far away, but there must be similar agencies in
WA.

For example:

I'd check around for Sea Scouts, or just about any summer camp.
