Recent Thefts
Friday, August 25, 2023 at 8:15AM Hi,
My name is Caroline Hanson and my husband, Steve, and I have a cottage at 262 Forbes Drive. I just saw Chris’s post in E-spokes today about the recent Thefts. Just thought I would pass this on….not sure if it is helpful or not, but the night the gas tank was stolen from the boat I was awoken by a boat with a loud motor going close to shore at 3:15 am. The boat was heading south and cut it’s engine around the cove, about 6 houses down, so I just thought it was someone just coming home late ;) Anyways, the motor started again, so I went out on our balcony to see the boat head across the water in the direction of Chemainus/Ladysmith. With not knowing much about boats, It was an open tin type boat. I wasn’t sure who I should contact to let them know what I saw, until I saw Chris’s post today. Hope this is helpful in some way in catching these thieves!
