DETAILS:
A catamaran anchored near Doolittle’s in Marigot Bay, St. Lucia was boarded between 6-9 PM Saturday while the crew was ashore.
When they returned they discovered the ladder down and wet footprints on deck.
Although the main doors were fully locked, the thieves gained entry through a poorly secured hatch. They removed cash from a purse left in the saloon and also from a suitcase in one of the cabins. No other items were taken, and 2 wet towels were left behind.
A report was made to the local police.
(Editor’s Note:- Although not confirmed, due to the presence of a ‘suitcase’ it is possible this was a charter yacht.)
