Graham47 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Norfolk Police and coastguard teams from Winterton and Bacton were looking for a boat stolen from Barton Broad at 23.35 last night. After an extensive search nothing was found and the coastguard teams were stood down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travel is easy as the traffic is light, arrive at the boat get settled in with the basics and turn in. Next morning finish the unloading, have breakfast, fill the water tank and head straight of for a weeks holiday. Thankfully every time I've done that my boat has been there!

Agreed but it sounds as though the boat went missing from Barton Broad or have I got that wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanessan Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Reading the report again, it’s debatable where exactly the boat was stolen from. The OP said bright lights were being shone into the boats moored at Cox’s and down Paddy’s Lane, not sure what that would achieve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meantime Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 More details are slowly emerging. Quite a distinctive boat if anyone sees it. Boat stolen in Barton Turf | Norfolk Constabulary Stolen Boat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
