Country Name: Martinique
Location Detail: St. Pierre
EVENT: Attempted theft
HAND: 1
Stolen Items: None, not successful
SECURED: Locked
DETAILS: Owners anchored just offshore in St. Pierre awoke after a rainy night and discovered their in-the water and well locked dinghy had been tampered with. An attempt to remove the outboard was made as evidenced by one of the transom clamps being fully loosened. The theft was thwarted by the locking mechanism that prevented the second clamp from being turned.
