I tried doing one myself last year and didnt have much luck w/ the boiling process. Ended up taking it to a taximan. After telling him my story, he said I basically didnt cook it long enough. He said cook it like a roast - a long time. It makes the junk inside softer and easier to get out. He finished the job and got a second one later in the season. It only cost me $75 and was well worth the money.
