2036 – Theft in Grenada – Carriacou – Tyrrel Bay


Incident Date: 2016-06-11 at 03:00

Event Type: Theft

Stolen Items: AB 9'6

Secured: Not Locked

Source Type: 1st Hand Report

Incident Details: A dinghy/outboard hoisted on the port side was stolen overnight from an occupied yacht. It was not locked to the yacht. The theft was reported to the police, the boatyard and later on the VHF net, two other dinghies were also stolen the same night. Details for those thefts are not currently available. CSSN NOTES: Securely locking (visibly) a hoisted dinghy can make the difference. Additionally, using cable (vs. rope) for the harness to a height sufficient to make it out of “machete reach” can further reduce the chance of theft. Making timely first hand reports helps other cruisers, it’s easy with the CSSN online reporting form! https://www.safetyandsecuritynet.com/?p=665
