The RVIPF also urges dinghy owners to exercise caution. “Police are reminding boat and dinghy owners to consistently lock and secure these vessels to docks and yachts as theft of these items is beginning to rise. Charters boat companies are also urged to instruct visitors and guests to do the same.”
