Excellent outcome, I thought the only option was for it to go abroad as it was too hot to handle and in one sense I was right, its too hot for them

On the theme of a tracker, I wonder if that is why it was found in a quiet location. That would be a classic thief check for a tracker, leave it somewhere quiet for a couple of days and see if anyone turns up to collect it. Its what they do with cars nowadays.

Great result. Boat found in Southampton on an industrial estate in West End.

Minor scratches only.

Good news that its been found.
Wonder if it did have a tracker fitted
Unfortunately the news was saying 30 wetsuits and lifejackets were also taken but not recovered,

Great to hear it's been recovered. Let's keep everything crossed that they manage to find the lowlifes that took it!

If they are anything like the jackets at our local place they are pretty rough, heavily used and abused

Yes thanks all for putting the word about, boat was found I don't have details of who/how as its an ongoing investigation.

The wetsuits and life jackets were pretty worn but some were good.

Excellent outcome about boat at it could have pretty much closed or at least crippled the club.

Just hope the scrotes don't come back!

I'm very pleased to see this has been found - what scum to steal it and deprive less fortunate people of pleasure. I'd better not post what I think should happen to such crims...
