hotshot Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 (edited) It's hard to believe the sheer nerve/ cheek of the people who tonight stole the Yamaha 25 litre petrol tank (and tried for the battery too!) from my boat parked on our driveway right below our bedroom window, with my wife and I in bed and the bedroom light still on! Our double-glazing masked the noise they were making (rustling cover as they removed it) - fortunately our neighbour had her bedroom window open and heard it/ them! Full marks to the police who had an officer there within 20 minutes of my phone call (so about 30 minutes after my neighbour alerted us) but, as you might imagine, not much hope of catching them. To add insult to injury, the tank was full...! Edited August 14, 2011 by hotshot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Nash Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 I dont have any Jim ...... maybe they already been stolen . I had some little scroats ransack my boat when it was in my yard (I knew it was scroats because I had CCTV keeping it's eye on it, and of course it was during school holidays time).

great white Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 The little sods should be given a hard time when eventually they go inside. It may convince them not to go there again. I know how you feel, when we were on the Boat yesterday we noticed collision damage to the Stbd rail, she has been hit hard on the mooring. Not something you could do without noticing but no one has told us. Not easy to repair either Not quite as bad as thieves but close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggcol Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 We know how you feel it makes you sick that even when caught nothing much ever happens to them. Bring back the BIRCH I say!!!! Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
