Call the guy from Boston he does have it right!!!!!!! Set them up set a pretty boat out there, no locks just prime for stealing when they hook up, hell, call all of us to be in the hull, we could precieve it as a threat and then light them up big time.

That's some pretty sad chit. All those locks, and still. Geez. Guess the old saying that locks are for honest people is true. Good luck.

Thanks Fever Mike...hopefully we can put the past in the past!
Yes the yard is lighted VERY well....there has to be over 10 spots from telephone polls on. Plus for those who do not know our location we are loacted on a busy 4 lane road, 30,000+ cars PER day. They got big b****!
We really do not know what time of night? New heavy duty gates with special sldie locks go in next week, no more chains and the locks are protected with the locking mechanism so you can't get bolt cutters on it. Nothing is a 100%, but what ever we can do to prevent break ins, we are.
Spoke to Perfectmix today....still no word on the boat.

Well guys got a phone call Sunday Morning, Our boat was recovered this W/E in Southeast Florida. Don't have all of the details and haven't seen it yet but I know that arrests were made. I know that our boat is sitting on a different trailer towed by a stolen 04' F350 and our trailer was found in a different location hooked on another stolen truck. Don't know all of the facts yet so I will keep you guys posted as I find them out. I appreciate all of the support.

Josh, it's good to hear the boat and trailer were found. And even better that they arrested the bastages. I hope the boat is just as you left it, condition-wise. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

My fingers are crossed, the guy at the recovery yard said the boat looked brand new, for whatever that is worth. I sure hope so. The boat is being held and I cant even go near it because it is a crime scene so I'm still waiting.
