The RIB is a 5.8 metre BWM (Blue Water Marine 18) made in 1994 which has an orange
hull, grey tubes, orange console, blue double seat, blue drum on the rear with weights and
rope, bow locker with anchor and rope. Under the seat there is an oxygen cylinder. The
engine was an outboard Mariner Optimax 135hp serial OT630810 in black and red. There is
an A frame to the rear with dry containers strapped on in yellow with red lids. The hull is
quite worn. There is a non standard orange wooden plate which has been fibre-glassed in.
This would be very obvious to anyone looking in. There is also an internal fuel tank with
about 45 litres of 2 stroke petrol fuel.
The trailer is a metal 4 wheeled SNIPE SUPER 7. It has 4 roller supports made out of
stainless steel which would make them stand out to any buyer. One roller is missing on the
offside. The trailer is dull galvanised steel. There is a yellow bucket covering the propeller
on the boat. There are no electronics or keys left on the boat.
There was a white vehicle 4x4 style with open back that Police are interested in tracing also. If anyone has seen similar
around marinas, yards or storage areas then please note the registration and call it in.
