Recently,
KIRO TV news ran an article about outboard motor thefts in the northern Puget
Sound region including Everett, Mountlake Terrace and Bothell. According to
KIRO TV more than 18 motors have been stolen from boats stored in homeowner’s
driveways.
A
suspect has been apprehended who admitted to stealing 5 motors in the Bothell
area.
Police
who were interviewed emphasized storing outboard motors in a garage or other
secure place when parking boats. Typically, smaller outboard motors (such as
trolling motors) are easy to take. Cables and chains are easy to cut with the
right cutters. There are locking clamps that can be used that make it difficult
to take a motor. However, keeping an outboard motor in your locked garage or
storage building is probably the most effective action to take.
