THEFT PREVENTION
The best ways to prevent theft of your boat or equipment is to take proactive steps to deter a would-be thief from choosing your boat
instead of someone else’s!
Here are some ways to lessen the chance of your boat or valuable items from being stolen:
- Remove all valuables from the boat after each outing.
- Lock what you can (doors, cabinets, closets).
- Cover the boat with a tarp or canvas (out of sight, out of mind).
- Store in a well lighted area.
- Keep a lock on the trailer tongue connection.
- Chain the trailer to a secure object.
- Remove a trailer tire.
- Install a securing cable to the outdrive.
- Never leave keys in the boat.
- Take pictures of your boat and inventory all equipment by recording a description of the item along with the make, model
and serial number.
- Mark your property by engraving the items with your driver’s license number.
