Hello
Some thefts rob masts and leave the boat abandoned. This is outrageous.
There is a reward if you have some information. Check this video out:

I suspect with fuel prices high and still climbing, a lot of insured
boat owners will be hopeful.
Sounds a lot like "seller's remorse" self talk. Did you manage to find
a new owner for the "Yo-Ho"? If so, are you shopping for a replacement?
No remorse here, and no, I haven't sold Yo Ho but then, I haven't tried.
Gas consumption is pretty decent on her, considering: about 10 gallons an
hour at cruise speed of more than 25 mph, the "more" depending on load.
The boat that I sold burned about 10 gph at 27mph cruise speed. The new one
burns 23gph at a cruise of 30mph. I've been finding myself using the 17'
boat more and more if the seas are flat...even running out as far as 15-20
miles in it. But when those seas are up, I'm very happy to have the extra
9,000 lbs, and 13 feet of length beneath me.
