Some bastard nicked my tender!

[Guest]

From Deacons on the Hamble.

Can't think why - it was small and plastic and wasn't particularly stable. BUT it had a rolly ball thing in the stern so it was dead easy to push around and also get rainwater out of etc.

If anybody see's it would they let me know - its made by Plastimo, white and marked T/T MAGICIENNE inside the transom.

Alternatively would the bastard who took it please put it back - nuff said. (Although I shouldn't think that type of person reads this forum - just had to get it of my chest).

When was it nicked, it sounds very much like one that was floating out on the tide from Pwllheli harbour on Saturday lunchtime.

Re: Ha Ha

Sorry, not meant to be faec...(whatever), but just to suggest that it might have floated away, or been 'borrowed' perhaps?

You could always...

...go to your local boat jumble and buy it back!

Bad Luck !

I suggest you post a sign as follows :-

' This dinghy park always prosecutes thieves '

'AFTER THEY COME OUT OF HOSPITAL'

I've got a 2nd hand AX2 for sale.
With that you could roll it up and take it home.

Re: Ha Ha

I thought same and have alerted Hamble Harbourmaster.

No joy though.

Thanks Nige

But I've already got an inflatable - its just such a pain in the arse to use it on a regular basis - which is at least every weekend and some evenings.

Was it plastic, white, with a large dark blue 4 on the side?

... and my tool kit, portable generator, VHF - in fact pretty well everything that was moveable off the boat.

The Police took the details, and did nothing more.

3 months later the genny turned up in a second hand shop in Portsmouth. The Police took possession, and warned me I might not get it back as the person who was selling it said he had bought it in good faith (at a local car Boot sale). Ownership was therefore 'disputed'.

Eventually I did get it back. But it would have saved a load of hassle just to buy it and forget the rest.
