Sorry Scott, that has to be a bummer....

I am  amazed that anyone who would enjoy a kayak would steal one, but
then I guess that those bums are not kayakers as we know them. I also am
always  struck dumb when I see trash in a nature setting, it is such a
contradiction to me.

I store my spare  plastic kayak on my side deck and have a vinyl coated
bicycle cable and lock to secure it to the deck railing. I also use the
same cable and lock when I have to leave my car unattended while
traveling with my kayaks. I hated the idea at first, but have just
accepted that unfortunate thing happen occasionally and protect my
kayaks as best I can so that I don't spend time worrying.

I hope that you get your old friend back, or enjoy your new one.

Best regards,
Rob Dee
Austin, Texas
