Incident Details: An unoccupied boat at anchor was burglarized. The owners had been absent for about 2 weeks and on their return discovered a pry bar had been used to defeat the companionway lock and gain entry. The thieves took many things from below (TVs tools, dive gear, etc.) and would have needed considerable time to accomplish their thievery. This burglary was the 4th incident in this bay during the last month, use CSSN’s Zoom -Tap, Know and Go! interactive infographic to review the available information on these incidents. This incident was reported to the police (Aeronaval), and the marina. Nighttime patrols have been put in place recently.

Source Type: 1st Hand Report
Incident Details: Overnight an in-the-water and not locked dinghy went "missing". There were 2 separate lines securing the dinghy to the yacht, both were now untied (not frayed or chafed) at the dinghy end but still secure to the yacht. The owners conducted an extensive search that day and did not locate the dinghy. A $100 reward was offered. 3 days later the dinghy was "found" and the promised reward paid. The outboard (which had not been locked to the dinghy) had been removed and was inside the dinghy, the fuel tank and other items were still in place.
