Sorry to hear that, mate. That is a terrible thing to happen to you.
I hope that it was insured.

Todays boating mission came to a grinding halt
Went out to the boat and some lowlife prick has unbolted the outboard from the transom and cut the rectifier wiring and made off with it .
They have managed to do this between 11pm and 6am last night and i didnt hear anything .
I hope the bastards get their nuts caught in a cordless drill while fitting it to their shit boat .
Not sure what else is missing from the boat as im waiting for the crime scene coppers to show up and fingerprint it
2009 Mercury 30hp tiller , rectifier fitted but wires cut all the mounting bolts and the threaded tensioners taken had 10- 15 hrs tops on it .
Serial number ON106058
STOLEN FROM WELLO POINT
Sorry to hear that, mate. That is a terrible thing to happen to you.

YEP FULL INSURANCE but its just a stuff around getting it all sorted with a new one being fitted . I know all the knives are gone from in the boat but am unsure what else is missing atm .
Have a screwdriver and 2 stubbie bottles they dropped in the garden so hopefully they left a few fingerprints and are caught quickly .
Was it in your front yard or behind a fence?
both behind a six foot fence in the front yard , cannot be seen from the road
as the trees block it from view
3 fishing knives are gone from a butchers pouch aswell
There is 4 other cars in the street within 100m that they have tried to break into
Mine , 1 next door and 2 up the street 4 houses
2 Stubbies in my yard , a screwdriver in next doors yard and a piece of wire under the car up the road used to bust in
Bolts through the transom undone and taken and the rectifier cables cut clean
All i have from the outboard is 1 spring washer and 1 flat washer
Scumbags, Hope they get caught by someone who knows exactly how to treat them
Hope the evidence adds up and points towards the theif. I think Charleville summed it up, 'no one wins when these things happen.' Too true.
Best of luck,
Kaidon
Conservation NOT preservation!
I'm so sorry for your loss matey.
I know just how bad that knot in the guts is when you see the result of the handy work of these sh!theads.
How brazen are they drinking stubbies whilst committing a crime??
Obviously they're used to the pressure of the job.
I truly hope they've pooped in their own nest with that final humiliation that they inflicted upon you. Drinking stubbies whilst unbolting the outboard...???
It's really sad how the worlds going.
What do we do to change it?
Something going to give...and it won't be pretty.
When are they going to get serious with these (usually repeat) offenders??
I intend on living for-ever....so far so good
I still reckon that 12 months of broken fingers plus repaying the thefts is good penalty, every three weeks a mob fronts up to break another finger on the opposite hand. There are some remarkably efficient tools available to do that job nicely.
Repeat offenders get two fingers broken each visit, one each hand.
Repeat repeat offenders get holes drilled right through the front teeth.

Apparently there have been around 20 boats this month stolen around bayside brisbane area police told a mate of mine after he reported a $120k boat stolen
