C N 4 Report post Posted April 29, 2022 Within the last 3 days/nights some POS decided to steal my outboard motor from our house. It's a 1989 Johnson 15hp. Any help at all with this is much appreciated. Tight lines everyone, it may be a while now until I can take my son fishing again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck on you’re recovery. Thanks a ton. It's got me pretty angry and the wife scared that someone just walked onto our property and stole it like that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joecat 22 Report post Posted April 29, 2022 I found an outbaord last summer in the back alley behind my house. I figure some crackhead stole it and dumped it when the pawn shop turned them away they got tired of carrying it. Give the local pawn shops a call, if someone tries to bring it in they will hold onto it for you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C N 4 Report post Posted April 29, 2022 Thanks everyone for the ideas and help looking out. I've gone to every pawn shop, no luck. Next step to call small engine mechanic's to check there. I was going to have it tuned up this year so hopefully the thieves have the same idea. Rewards available in the form of beer & whiskey and a huge rear end whooping for whoever took it.

Bobber Down 921 Report post Posted April 29, 2022 When your have something stolen from your property/boat or whatever maybe post what area or street Eg: current river, john st., westfort That way others on the site can keep an eye out and secure items a little better than they might normally do. Someone or some group may be working an area. Tis the world we live in.

poz 35 Report post Posted April 30, 2022 Hi CN. Great you could post a vin #. I will keep an eye out quite often at remote lakes. We had a large planter stolen from right beside our front door last year. Some of these guys are unbelievable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
