Marinas Become the Target of Theft

When Marian Nazelrod discovered her boat had been robbed while it was docked at the Bay Colony Community Yacht Club marina east of Dagsboro, her initial reaction was anger.


At some point between the evening of July 9 and the morning of July 12, rod and reels, a fishing net, the anchor, a cooler full of fishing supplies, tool and tackle boxes and some parts for the motor were taken from the Nazelrods' pontoon boat.

The couple was informed by their friends, John and Eileen Loftus, who also had items stolen, including two large crab pots, rods and reels and a Big Bertha towable float tube.

Nazelrod estimates it will cost her close to $500 to replace the items.

"I find it appalling," she said. "I'm just so angry. We've been (at the marina) since 2002 and we haven't had anything taken in that time."

Since July 12, two other boats have reported missing items, Nazelrod said, and she believes the economy is to blame.

The Nazelrods' and Loftus' boats are docked at the farthest pier in the marina, she said, making it easy for someone to arrive by boat and grab "everything they could take off with."

    "she believes the economy is to blame"

    When you leave your stuff lying around in the bottom of a boat you can expect it to get stolen in ANY economy.

    "If somebody needed a fishing rod, I'd give them one"

    you already did, miss, you already did
