The theft of a motor from an oudtboard RIB on the Isle of Wight is prompting a police appeal for more information.
The motor was unscrewed and stolen from the front garden of a house in Partlands Road, Ryde sometime between 6.30pm on Wednesday September 19, 2012 and 7.10am the next morning.
The Yamaha 25 2007 outboard motor is described as being blue in colour with a white propeller. It is believed to be worth approximately £1,000.
Investigating officer PC James Senior said: “I am keen to hear from anyone who may know the whereabouts of the motor or who have any information that can assist in this investigation. It is believed that the offender would have been in the area for a considerable amount of time removing the motor and would have used a vehicle. I would like to take this opportunity to remind owners to try to keep equipment in secure storage overnight where possible.”
