I am looking at putting a rib on a swinging mooring in Poole harbour and just wanted to know what extra security I should look at.

Welcome to the forum

Because the RIB is such a nondescript boat and quite small and innocuous, I believe that, sadly, it will be an easy target for thieves. Anyone in a small RIB attracts little attention compared to a yacht or a larger motorboat. Someone could just 'use it' and then abandon it to get somewhere else. :confused:

If the RIB is of the larger type and has a 12 volt battery built into the seats, then it is possible to fit a tracking device.
