Today I discovered it is now just pulling the garage door open far enough to squeeze in (it's a relatively flimsy 3/4 in. plywood door).

A neighbour offered me a live trap. I may take him up on that!
Hmm, perhaps a different approach, you should use steel wool in anything that might be tasty to various varmints in "critical" locations.

One bite of steel wool and the racoon won't want your boattail anymore.

Works great on mice.
