Default How to steal a yacht.....

Reported my boat stolen last Oct.
Gave Police name and address of suspect. Yesterday they called round and found the yacht. Suspect had offered to buy it 12 months ago, and, without telling me, had taken boat. Claimed he'd sent a cheque (admits it was never cashed - I never got it), and couldn't contact me as he'd lost my details (He took it from a yard that had my details, and knew two others who had my number).
As he told the Police he could show a cheque book stub for the payment, they refused to even take him in for questioning. Angry ---- you bet! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
