Default Ever worry about your boat being stolen?

Interesting, but I fail to see how that is going to stop
anybody from stealing a boat.


Absolutely will not.

Remember "the club"? Supposedly stopped auto theft by adding an
extension to the steering wheel and making it impossible to turn it
far enough to steer.


There is literally nothing you can do to prevent theft. I was
talking to a guy last year who had his brand new Ranger Z-21
stolen right off the back of his pickup truck. I've heard that
there are theft rings that look for easy on/off ramps and
registrations from states that are non-title states for boats.
Steal the boat and sell it in another non-title state.
