    Angry Trailer stolen at Plymouth

    A word of warning to all divers.

    North East Derbyshire SAC had a roller coaster 7 trailer stolen from the car park at the Mounbatten Centre at Plymouth on Easter Sunday. The trailer was secured with a triple locking hitch lock, a wheel clamp and was chained and padlocked to another trailer.

    Really sorry to hear your news, sounds like they really wanted it. I hope it turns up, they aren't cheap bits of kit.

    Gulp, I left my trailer in the car park overlooking the Sound at Mountbatten on Monday......was left attached to the car and wheel clamped too. 'Luckily' it was still there when I came back.

    Was this stolen trailer attached to a vehicle too?

    Cheers,

    David.

    PeeBee: The replacement trailer is costing us £2,290 plus the cost of fuel to get from Derbyshire to Plymouth and back. Plus the hassle of 3 or 4 of us going down, getting the boat on the trailer and then moving the axle to get the nose weight right.

    David G: The trailer was fastened to another trailer. I don't know what else we could have done to protect it, apart from locking it inside a secure compound. There wasn't any CCTV in the car park either.
