mistaredone Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) I have been storing my boat in my sisters building underground this summer and when I went to pick up my boat today I find an empty spot where my motor used to be. Damn!!!!! It was a 90hp Evanrude tracker 92-93. I have insurence on the boat but im sure this will still cost me a bundle. Also my gps with navionics chip and fish finder consols are gone. These guys must have known what they were doing to pull this job off. The engine weighs 300lbs, cables, wires, bolts under the deck, ugh! So far I have checked kijiji and craigslist looking for my motor but no luck. If anyone can think of other places I should look or advice for the process ahead would help. Thanks Steve Im not 100% on the year The carnage Edited October 28, 2009 by mistaredone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watertight Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Sorry for your loss. Happened to me too a while back. You are correct it will cost you $ to replace even if you have insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 yup, I feel for you I had my ATV stolen and the insurance only gave me half of what it would take to replace it, less then 500km on it I would like to cut their manhood off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom McCutcheon Posted September 29, 2009 Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 That's scary... where bouts in missisauga was that? will keep an eye out in the Kawarthas also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistaredone Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 That's scary... where bouts in missisauga was that? will keep an eye out in the Kawarthas also. It was taken Erinmills and 403. I appreciate you keeping an eye out. I just got back from making a police report. A good tip going forward was to take down serial the numbers for your gps, trolling motor, fish finders ect in the rare case of recovery. Man I feel low.

ketchenany Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Sorry to hear about your loss; a lot of :asshat :S out there looking for a quick $. I park in an underground where I work and just recently noticed a camera in the ceiling at the exit door, maybe you can ask them if they have one and get the tapes. My son in law a few years back got his car taken (Honda SIR) out of a Canadian Tire parking lot at 1 pm. He is the GM and when his employees asked where he went for lunch he told them he hadn't gone yet; maybe not you but the car did, NOT a trace of it. Good luck.

CLofchik Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 Be sure to check other provinces, alot of stuff flows down the 401. There's been an epidemic of motorcycle theft out of condos in the last few years, the only one I know of that was recovered was on the Montreal Kijiji.

keiths Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 If you have it, someone will try to steal it. Any marks or whatever on the motor so it can be recognized? Or maybe a photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohhenrygsr Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sorry about your loss. Does anyone know of any outboard locks we can get?. I know they sell them for the smaller 9.9 and 20Hp outboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbosh1980 Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 that happened in an underground? that sucks...I usually think of my underground parking as safer than above ground. I leave tonnes of gear in my car in plain sight when i'm in my lot. Check that, I USED to keep lots of gear in my car. Not any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistaredone Posted October 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Just finished with the marine guy from the insurence company. He said to have a marina do an estimate done for the whole job, motor, cables ect. Any marina sugestions would help. Hopefully this dose not drag out and I can get back out on the water before the season ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom McCutcheon Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Sounds like you are in good hands with the insurance guy (pun intended if with State Farm or is that All State?) Are they replacing your motor with new or used equipement? The reason I ask is it might be the time to upgrade to a four stroke, even if you have to pay the difference. Tom.

The reason I ask is it might be the time to upgrade to a four stroke, even if you have to pay the difference. Tom. I will get a quote of the whole job, motor included but I think the motor will be given a book value. The equipment will be used. The value on the insurence for boat, trailer and motor as a whole is $10,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
