Event Type: Attempted Theft

Stolen Items: None

Secured: Locked

Source Type: 1st Hand Report

Incident Details: Catamaran owners awoke to find their swim ladder had been pulled down and they had been boarded overnight. They learned that another boat on a nearby mooring was also boarded (see 3796). The yacht was locked and nothing had been taken.

CSSN UPDATE: A third yacht experienced similar events the next night. (see 3797) A full police report will be made by all 3 victims, and shared with the Port Captain and the marina.

CSSN UPDATE: The 3 victim boats attempted to make a police report but were rebuffed by officials, who seemed unaware of the boardings/events of the previous night. When asked for specific advice, the Chief of Police suggested calling 911, who should summon the correct response units, asking the boarders to leave (3x) and making a video of the activity. In the ABC’s calling 913 will connect with the Dutch Coast Guard.
