[time warp]

*STOLEN* 21' Stoker with 225 Evinrude Vindicator. Boat is Yellow and White with Gray, Red, and Black stripes. It is on a galvanized Trail-Rite tandem axle trailer license Washington# 7650-LX.
Stolen about 9:30pm Aug. 20th from the end of Shore Drive in Bremerton, Washington, by someone with a loud truck. It had a full gray cover on it when taken.

Boat was spotted around 9:00am Aug. 23rd traveling south in Belfair, Washington, still had grey cover on possibly being towed by a newer Black Ford Ranger pickup.

One of very few high performance low profile boats in the area with a Tandem axle galvanized trailer.

The owner is offering a reward for information leading to the recovery of the boat.
Call Jim Berbells @ 360-377-7733 or 911 if you have any information.

I will keep my eyes out :(

Reason to believe this boat is still in the Northwest, please keep your eyes and ears open. A 19' Proline center console was stolen today in Bremerton also, it's a scary thought that they are coming into peoples driveways, cutting locks and taking boats.

Thanks for looking,
Caleb

montiboats24,
Did you see it since August 20th? if so where??

The bummer is that they found the motor on Tuesday the 7th, it's not in very good shape, when the Sheriffs dept had it moved the tow truck drivers did a pretty good job of messing it up, they wrapped a chain around the power head to lift it, broke coils and tore up other stuff, no sign of the boat, keep your eyes open for the boat.

Yes,
Jim and Laurie are both sick about this.

That makes me sick...

So many times I hear about wrecker drivers ruining someone's property because they either don't care or the cops are too lazy to take a few minutes helping them do the job right the first time.

I had a wreck on my motorcycle when a lady who was on her cell phone, pulled out in front of me. I ditched the bike in the grass but it high-sided and bent the forks. The ambulance took me away and the cops assured me they would take care of the bike.

When I saw it three days later, all the fairings were destroyed by the strap they lifted it with, and then the cable cut through the crankcase of the engine leaving it worthless. My insurance company said the majority of the damage was sustained by the wrecker and they would have to be responsible for that damage. It took me six months to recover my loss!! I ended up calling the finance company that was holding the notes on the tow trucks they used and threatening a lein. Course I had no grounds, but the bluff worked.

I will never leave a scene of a wreck until I see my baby leave before me.
