Default Suggestions needed for Rat extermination

Hi,
Somehow a rat got on my sailboat. I've tried traps, poison, sticky mats
to no avail.
Any help or suggestions from people who have had this problem would
be appreciated.

Thanks


One nonpregnant rat will eventually drop dead and stink, making
catching it easy.

More than that and catching rats might become a new weekend passtime
for you.

Rats starve or leave if there is no food available.

A hungry cat will do the neccessary.

Snares around rat holes will eventually catch it.

Warfarin left out will induce the rat to die at a location where it
can get water.

Fumigate with carbon monoxide engine exhaust or CO2 extinguisher?

Or, tame it and love it. Rats eat cockroaches.
