My kids have had life vest and foul weather gear, all with their names in indelible marker, walk away from the yacht club area, never to be returned. I had a #2 genoa with the old style Schaeffer furling gear (before foils) in the trunk of my car when the car was stolen. The car was recovered in part minus the sail and gear and I cannot say that there is much of a market for those items in New Orleans. Then there is E-Bay. Could you recognize your stolen snatch blocks or winch handles? A lock may not help with the prepared thief but it will work with the opportunistic hunter. And with a lock, you are not misrepresenting facts to your insurance company.

Ever seen a snatch block in a pawn shop? How many drug dealers accept snatch blocks as payment? As I said earlier, there's not much demand for used marine stuff and it's outside the normal realm of most thieves. Dennis C.
