I have a folder named "boards" that is in the same folder as the app, but its contents can not be stored in the bundle because the user makes changes to its contents, I need to load files from this folder so I need to tell my app the path to it relative to itself.

Wouldn't it be better if you moved this folder to ~/Library/Application Support/YourAppname/ ?
I guess then it would be a tad harder for the user to find it, though it seems more reliable (i.e. what if your user decides for whatever reason to move just your app to another location?) and it's easier for you to find. :-)
Anyway, my 2c.
