so this week I'm picking up my new Doral with Merrc outboard. In the past I didn't worry too much about getting my old boat stolen since it was so old, but on a brand new boat, I want to put chance on my side. The boat will be at the cottage for the summerand we won't be there during the week.
here's what I plan on doing:
when on the dock
-prop lock (required by my insurance)
-outboard engine lock (also required)
-chain the front hook of the boat to a metal ring welded to the dock using a 3/8th chain and lock.
when on the trailer
-put a coupler lock (of course the coupler should be welded on)
-chain the trailer to a concrete/metal post
What other tricks do you guys have?
