Boat lower unit and Kicker stolen at Hazlet Best Western

[DrBee]

A great trip to Keyport turn into a disaster thanks to a few jerks who saw fit to steal my lower unit from my Yamaha 250 4 stroke. They also took my 9.9 kicker. The boat was parked in the lot at the Best Western in Hazlet. If any of you fisherman have any information call the Hazlet County Police. We had great time fishing for blues on Wednesday evening and all day Thursday. We planned to fish Friday and leave for Manassas Virginia Saturday morning. It’s amazing no one saw them remove the items since the boat was parked in front in view of the front desk……I believe there was some inside knowledge someplace. My friend boat was parked next to mine but his was a small aluminum with an older 90 Johnson…..they knew what to take…..
I also had a flat tire when I came off the Jersey Turnpike. Put the spare on and Thanks to Pep Boys had a new tire on in time to fish Wednesday evening. I had the tire checked at NTB before I left…..some checking ……well things in life happen. Duck and Cover from this board told me he read my post when we talked at Pep Boys…..Maybe you guys can help stop this crap….ruins many a fishing trip. See Pics….thanks for those who gave me some information on fishing. Sorry need help with posting pics....

I drove up 35 on Weds night to do a quick night job and noticed the boat with Kicker on it around 9 pm so it must have been sometime after that. No security cameras in the parking lot???

They said no but my have at Friendly....police will check....that was my boat.

They broke one kicker lock so the motor will be missing one and have only a stub....that's something they can't fix.

Used to leave my poles in the boat when I went into Fred's on RT. 35 for bait. No more I remember the the guy who had a custom rod made for his wife, went in for coffee at a convience store and when he came out it was gone. Fished many years up at Crotch Lake in Ontario and you just leave all your stuff in the boat all week. Wonder if it is still like that in Canada. Around here stuff is gone in a heartbeat.
