Cobram Criminal Investigation Unit is urging locals to secure their boats after a range of thefts in the area.
Police confirmed there had been a number of high-end boat thefts along the Murray River recently, particularly in Yarrawonga and Bundalong.
“Members of the community and boat owners should be aware and vigilant in securing their boats and assets, particularly those stored on premises that are holiday homes and not inhabited full time,” police said.
Police urged owners to increase their security, reminding them that a Tow Hitch Lock is not secure enough and can be cut to remove the boats.
Police are encouraging owners to install a boat alarm, fit anti-theft wheel clamps and wheel locks, secure trailers with a good-quality chain, install a GPS boat-security and tracking device, and record the serial and HIN number of the boat, engine and other gear.
Police said owners could also install CCTV cameras and security sensor lights, store their boat and trailer in a locked garage, and relocate boats stored at holiday homes to a more secure location.
