Or, just tow it to a locksmith shop. The locksmith is only costly when you have them come to you. My father is a locksmith and this would cost about $20 and take less than 10 minutes if it was brought to him.

If you just pull the lock cylinder, you can bring just that to the locksmith. A good locksmith can look at the tumblers and make you a key by eye. Had to to that on a boat I bought where the prev owner lost the cabin key. Took the locksmith 10 minutes and cost me $20.

Rule #1: Never, never remove the keys from the boat!!!!!
That one rule has worked for the last 26 years for me. If someone wants to steal it, not having the keys won't deter them!!!
