Solent 5.4 - Lymington - ~20 January 2008

Not sure if this should be under stolen ribs but just heard it on the news about rib stolen used by disabled crews

It was stolen from a car park at Bath Road, Lymington, even though the club had removed two of the trailer's three wheels and clamped the other one in a bid to prevent it being taken,

Latest pic

This is the boat and I am told it was taken without the engine. It is a Solent 5.4 in grey and blue and had some electronics which I am trying to find out. It also had a KB Marine label to it and was due for review in April by royalty! KB staff were trying to find a replacement today for the charity, so eyes open lets find it and maybe the little####s too.
