Sadly there are a few sketchy characters in CGB these days.. I think you meant to say " still a few sketchy characters". this isn't really news. Always lock your dink! words to live by...

I had my gas tank stolen once in St. Martin - I made it halfway back from the Marigot dock to my boat when the engine died and I couldn't restart it... it took me a while to realize why! Rowing a dinghy against 15Kt of wind is no fun And the next day it turned out that all the smaller tanks were sold out and all they had were $100 tanks (that was the empty price - fuel costs extra). Ever since then my locking cable has always been looped around the 2 outboard tightening handles and through the gas tank handle.
