Recommendation for headboats fishing Cod?

My pops and I were looking for a good boat fishing this time of year. Anything from the north shore of MA to RI. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

if you really want cod (instead of haddock or pollock) you probably want to go out of the RI. I'm not 100% sure on the regs, but I believe most of the gulf of maine is closed to cod now.

Edit: just googled it, it's very complicated, seems the closed areas change each month! probably best to check with the boat you plan on going on.
