LilBrit Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Apologies to the moderators for posting this in a couple of different sections but I wanted to get the info out as far as possible. We have had the 115hp Optimax stolen from the back of the boat last night while it was parked up on the trailer in our paddock. The scumbags also stole my Ifor Williams trailer, chainsaw and the kids quad bike. So if anybody is offered a second hand Optimax that sounds a bit dodgy please do let me know.

Graham Nash Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 What can I say???? I feel gutted for you. Realistically it's gone but I truly hope the scumbags get caught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Sorry to hear the news, too many people think they can just help themselves to whatever they want. Problem is IF they get caught there is no deterant to stop them doing it again. I hope you get the insurance sorted out ok. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedger Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Paul, Sorry to hear this. If it is a modern engine which is plugged into a pc on service I believe the serial number comes up. Worth making sure the dealership knows it's gone so it will flag up as stolen if plugged in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirky Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 Gutted for you mate !!! How on earth do they do it without getting caught ..... Trev has a good point though !! Hope your insurance gets it sorted in short order... Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrus have been informed so we will have to see, insurance sounds like it will pay up but that still leaves me to find a replacement 115hp motor. Very much doubt I will get another in such good condition :-((( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
