Some complete c*** has stolen my our little Tohatsu outboard motor. We are waiting to see if it’s going to be covered by insurance. It really, really sucks because:
1) we never buy anything new, always secondhand, and this was pretty much our only brand new (and thus expensive) thing, and…
2) the trimaran is now stuck where it is, and even if we do find the trailer (secondhand - of course) we’ve been searching for, we won’t be able to get the trimaran on it without a motor.
ARGH! When they said it was going to be a bad month, I didn’t realise quite how bad - although, of course, it is only a motor, and we can probably get another. Have to keep it all in perspective, which sort of easier than normal as one of our friends has been very ill in intensive care. She is now much better, and far more important than a motor. But it does, however, still suck. And the police haven’t been hugely helpful and are (kind of understandably) very short on boat knowledge - e.g. “So it weighs as much as, um, a dog?” ARGH!!
