Gotta wonder what the backstory is on this. Like whatever happened to the owner or is it just abandoned… just things to think about.

With the help of another commenter, it was determined that this was a mid-century B.C. Forest Service-style boat nicknamed "Blimps." It was used to check on coastal logging operations in BC before aircraft became widely available. It was recently near Astoria and now resides in this location. I don't know how it got here.
