EVENT: Burglary
HAND: 1
STOLEN ITEMS: Laptop, hardrives, tablet, Bluetooth speaker, fishing rod and reel, flare gun and shells large bolt/cable cutters.
DETAILS:
A yacht was boarded in the early evening and the handle from the bilge pump was used to force the padlock from the companionway hatch.
The boat was methodically searched and laptops, electronics, fishing gear, flare gun/shells and large bolt/cable cutters were stolen.
No damage other than the lock was done and it seemed that the intruder was efficient and likely only onboard for a very short time.
