That might sound good.
As I last asked OP was there an agreement - what type of agreement. Laws. Most important who has their name on property deed and such. The aunt might have paid for most everything last 25 years. We know what OP side of story which is probably bias.

OP admitted they let this fester out of control for 25 years while one party gained KNOWN control for years . OP Admits “father and Aunt double crossed another Aunt over inheritance”. Already bad actions at work. Op now wants in where they wanted out and none before. Op’s own father is on death bed…but if nothing was drawn up the property probably goes to aunt. Depends on agreements if any. The Aunt while it reads is not a good person but was allowed for at least last 15 years to have total control. That won’t work well in court for OP which allowed it. OP might not have a claim anyway. Probably no legal claim. That has-to be in agreements. OP kids already missed it because OP allowed it.
Looking at farm land in Ontario 2023 an acre is stated value of ~$4800. The cabin is admitted bad order needs significant repair. Just looked Seen cabin in great shape and ~2 acres ~$48,000.00 for that area. The OP admitted the boats were already 25 years old belonged to grandfather so no doubt older. Needed repairs. OP states boats so old in disrepair so cobbled one together to run ~10-15 years ago. Boats go down hill fast as you know from living in japan an island.
I would walk away. He walked away for 25 years. Probably best to keep walking. May have no legal claim as grand child anyway. Be ashamed to be put in prison over letting something go for ~25 years but now want resolution to a division that should have been known but not settled and was even ignored for so long. .
I don’t know OP …do you? The OP might be the bad guy. Bad ppl often call the cops first and other party is then the bad guy. If Aunt calls police on OP and was the bad person then police often side with caller. Not right but it is how that often works. Every fight seen or been in the winner goes to jail-threatened with prison. The loser even if started it is a pity party….more so
The person standing when police arrive usually goes to jail. The person that got police involved usually doesn’t go to jail. Once in jail the final realization will be principle which was not used for ~25 years ….. probably be a bad decision to do as feel.
