    Sorry to hear that Matt. Nothing ticks me off when people take things that aren’t theirs. I don’t understand the mentality and if I ever catch someone trying to take something of mine, I am afraid of what will happen.

    Yeah, even when I hear about other people being violated, it pisses me right off. We had a night about a week ago where some low lifes went down the block breaking into vehicles, even ones parked in the driveway. They skipped my truck apparently. Glad they didn’t go into the garage.

    Wow that really sucks, hopefully insurance will come through.

    I imagine a robber breaking into Mike’s house and hearing him call out “release the hounds” like Monty Burns.

    I saw you launch last night. Was in a black and tan c liner. Where did you leave your boat. Lots of out of towners out last night. That sucks

    Wasn’t there another theft reported on here a month ago? I believe it was also on the St. Croix. What’s going on up there? Looks like some boaters need to set up a surveillance/sting operation. I wish I was closer, I’d be down for that, I HATE THEIVES.

    ask some of the pleasure boat owners that overnight on the islands, your place is within sight range of the first camp sites, and I know some of the same boats stay out there every night. Maybe they saw something? doesnt hurt to ask, as ripping off a trolling motor at night would make some noise.

    Stepson keeps pontoon at Hudson Marina. Early this spring thieves got electronics, radio,, even the captains chair. Snapped the cover back down to avoid detection.

    amputation is a great solution and detours others

    Sorry about the theft.

    If the thief would work that hard a a real job they would not have to be the scum of the earth

    We shouldn’t be so hard on the thieves. Their parents probably used corporal punishment on them when they were defenseless children, they were spanked by those who were supposed to love them the most.
