NOT AGAIN!

Quote Print Post  
Alas it has happened again.........
My boat...a Pro 190 ProCraft was stolen from my yard on Tuesday the 6th sometime between 5:30 am and 4:30 pm.
I want to express to folks that this is increasingly getting to be a focus for these dirt bags and to take every effort to lock up your rigs.....I have already started on the concrete pilings and shed to get my rig....when returned.... to be safer in storage.
And yes.....I AM VERY PI#$ed OFF!

You've got to be kidding!!!  This is too much to believe.  In 15 years of my belonging to this club, not a single incident and now in the space of 3 months TWO thefts!
Incredible.  Tongue Tongue
Sorry for your loss Larry,  CryI'm headed to the Tri-Cities tomorrow morning and I'll keep an eye out for your boat.  In addtion I'll pass the word at the ABA Championship on Saturday. Sad

Holy crap! Angry

I know how infuriated I would be if this happened to me, but to those of you who go bass fishing weekly (some of you almost daily, it seems), I can't imagine how it must feel!

I'm still holding out hope for Rich, and now you too, Larry.

Larry, what kind of lock did you have on yours?  After mine was stolen I have been looking at different lock systems for trailers.

But when you get down to it if they want your boat there are several weighs to get it.  I think that some type of alarm system with vibration or movement alarm would be a great help.  At least they wouldn't have much time to do what they have to.

And since I only had a padlock on mine it was pretty easy to "snip & snatch".

Un-freaking believable.  So sorry Larry.  I still think frontier justice must return, or this sort of thing will continue to plague our communities.

Larry....I will definitely be on the lookout for your boat!  This is unfriggggin believable.

We will prevail on this matter no matter what.  We will find both your's and Rich's boat somehow, someway. 

I'm confident we will catch these guys sometime soon-  Justice will be served.  Keep the faith Rich & Larry-  you have a lot of friends looking out for you.

That is just unreal. I would wrap about 35 pounds of chain around the tongue with 6-7 locks hear and there. Maybe it will deter them a little....I am sorry to say, but there is no answer to stop crime. You just have to take the extra steps to avoid being a victim. If it looks too time consuming or risky for them, they'll move on to someone else.
