View Full Version : Stolen boat motor and trailer
My 17' Mckee boat, Load Star trailer, 85hp Suzuki engine was stolen from a private boat yard in Toms River, N.J. Name of boat in large letters on both sides, High Hopes 11 (2). I'm sick and can't sleep over this. Berkley Twp. Police took all information. One of a kind boat. Easy to spot. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you to everyone on NJ.COM for your support.

Sorry to hear this Cuz... Cops are only go to go so far to investigate so you might want to do some leg work and go to the area and see if perhaps there were any cameras in the area either at the marina or on the roads leading into or our of it...

I looked all day today from Toms River to Ocean Gate. No luck. But I got a positive call that a stolen boat showed up two years later in tack. I'm going to leave flyers at all the public boat ramps from AH to Barnegat Inlet. This 17' is on a Star trailer. Great boat for any bay or river.

I live North of Lake Hopatcong. PM me for my e-mail address, send me a flyer and I will print and distribute it up this way.
Good luck in recovering your boat and I hope the scumbags rot.

I hope you had insurance?
Did it have any security like hitch lock or anything else?
The boat HIN makes it useless to resell. Did you leave the registration on the boat? Makes it easier to sell to innocent third party who gets F*cked in the end like you.
The motor is the only thing not traceable.
The trailer thefts usually gets it out of public view. I doubt its anywhere near town.
Sorry to hear such crap news. The Marina ma be on hook too depending on set up
