Trailer / Outboard Motor Theft Protection Ideas
We have low life thugs committing smash and grabs in our area from time to time as well. Seems that security cameras, vigilance, and stiffer sentences might be our best line of defense. There are some informative videos online as to how many of the trailer locks on the market take less than 2 minutes to break. I mention this because newer trailers are targeted also. https://youtu.be/-Lq6_N5K1L4 There is some rust/patina looking paints that some sportsmen are using to decoy their trailers from these thugs prowling ramp parking areas. The thugs take wheels as well as the entire trailer.
