how safe is your boat?

how safe is your boat?

a false sense of security

Boats are often seen as easy targets for theft, and break-ins can happen during off peak times when the canals are quiet, or at high season when they are at their busiest.

remote spots

Boats are often moored in remote locations where thieves have the opportunity to see a long way into the distance, ensuring they are not disturbed.

But they can be just as vulnerable in marinas, especially if left for long periods. Marina staff are more likely to check ropes than to look for signs of forced entry

keep it safe

  • choose a marina or long term mooring that has some liveaboards, so there are generally people present who know you and your boat
  • check on marina or long term mooring security – how easy would it be for strangers to get to your boat?
  • on the cut, moor near other boats and not too close to a bridge (easy access for thieves travelling by car)
  • secure your boat when you leave it, but try not to make it obvious that there is no-one aboard
  • think about canopy security - a zip is no deterrent to a  thief who then has a good hideaway while breaking in
