STOLEN PARKER 2520 Pilothouse - REWARD!!

Hey Brothers! My 2002 2520 Parker Pilothouse was stolen Tuesday Night out of my storage unit in Viera/Suntree here in Melbourne, they were in and out in 5 minutes so knew exactly what they were doing, taking and probably been scoping it out. Brevard County Sheriff's have the Footage from security cameras. Please be on the lookout for a GunMetal Gray Ford Crew-Cab F250 short box driven by 2 white males. Please let me know asap and there is a reward for the these biotches to be arrested and my boat returned! I have her fully insured but I'm pissed, she was a machine and you can't replace those memories, thank you fellas and I appreciate it!

    I hope you recover your boat soon. Which storage facility in Viera? I keep my boat in storage off Viera Blvd and Schenk Ave. Makes me wonder if my ride is okay.

    I didn't want to say it for fear of jinxing you...but they have well organized thieves in south Florida...those motors will either be shipped to central/south america or the islands...or dismantled and sold parted out. There are no serial # on lower units injecter set ups electric parts etc...

    It is nearly epidemic....

    If you are insured....You will be getting a "repower" at a discount....except the hassle...

    If you are not...I am sorry.

    there was another dude on THT from New Smyrna Beach, same thing, boat swiped and found down in Miami...you are right, it is apparently super bad and heading into our area even more now...I am insured with Charter Lakes who are absolutely superb, so I am good to go other than the aggravation and no fishing for the next month...or 2...

    In general I like south Florida, but way to many dirt bag's have infiltrated from all around the world...a real shame what these people get away with. Consider putting a different brand on it........if you can stomach it...these clowns...have a strong preference for Yamaha's.

    Yeah, there's some serious organized crime in the area. Some guys hopped the wall and pulled the lower units off a pair of verados close to where I keep mine! On a military installation no less! Baffles me that this went down...

    Ballzy.... You can only hope some fresh faced 19 year old MP opens up on them with a M-16.... best way to deal with thieves. :wink

    Amen.

    And to bighardey - glad they got her back for you but sorry to see her motor less. It coulda been worse.

    Let me guess, the storage facility has no responsibility! Bet they made you sing a paper releasing them of any responsibility.

    Couldn't agree more...went down at 5am and picked her up and dropped her back off at 2 at Boaters Exchange in Rockledge to begin A PROPER REHAB to fix what the lowest scum bottom barrel of humanity did to her...thank you VERY MUCH to each of you for all your help, please understand each of you got the word out to a Very Large Amount of people thru FS, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and I cannot be more thankful for a great group and please never hesitate to ever reach out if you need something. I had many phone calls from folks from Tampa to the Keys looking for her, so my appreciation! here's is what the bastards did, these were taken at 3:30 today (08/02/2014), they swiped my Captains chairs out of the Pilothouse on both the driver and passenger side, but at least they didn't take my smallest sons little Hess Jet airplane :wink
