Customer has just reported to me that his yard in humberside was targeted last Monday 19th and 8 outboards were taken.
These included Honda 40hp, 50hp, 60hp motors and an etec 60. All within 3 years old.
Came prepared and cut all the wires. Where engine locks were fitted they simply unbolted that side of the transom bracket and left it on the boat!
Usual suspects eastern European outfits so likely to have already left the country but be careful if your in the Market.
Check the usual sites such as
www.stolenboats.org before buying anything (although these motors are not showing up on there yet ???)
