We just wanted to report a tender and outboard theft from our Ovni overnight on Wednesday 31st July while we were anchored in Arrecife Harbour. We were on a mooring block in the middle of the harbour.
The Tender was secured up on the Davits but not locked. The outboard was on the tender and taken as well.
We were on board at the time and didn’t hear anything. Another cruiser in a nearby boat heard/saw some people swimming around – at about midnight.
My husband woke up at 02.30, he happened to look out the back, and noticed the Tender which had been attached high up on the Davits, was missing.
