Stolen outboards

[Johnnybuoy]

Hi everyone.
Just a warning to all you owners of ribs.
I had my yamaha 60hp stolen of the back of my bombard explorer last week along with two others.
The other two outboards stolen was a yamaha 70hp next to mine.
The other was a beauty a 300hp suzuki outboard along with the gauges power steering motor and other bits needed.
This all happened near Wareham in Dorset. They cut the fence but sealed it back up to look like nobody had entered. Probably to keep coming back. So if your boat is in a secure compound just keep your eyes peeled.

Couldn't agree more with you.
They'll be in a shipping container bound for far away.

Yeah,organised crime. I knew a man down in Cornwall who had his 100hp Yamaha stolen. They literally cut the transom off so really he lost that too. The harbour master in st ives was telling me that the police had said they were organised gangs of Eastern European’s and not to approach them as a man who tried to stop them was attacked with a metal bar.
I know how it feels about 20yrs ago I had my whole rig stolen and was so angry, took me months to calm down. Again BASTARDS
