Understood, didn't want
to offend anyone. The tune I heard in my head (not being sober, either; after a night of fine food & drink) sounded as if you were offended an idyllic and wealthy place could be violated, at all, and as if that were a new phenomenon. When even gated communities are not necessarily safe havens and money and peace obviously attract those who want money and like to disturb the peace, and always have. Again, no offense.

Stolen Boat Nightmare Video
Newport Beach is a nice neighborhood. Quiet. Peaceful. Idyllic. Some nice palm trees. It's the Californian dream. I lived in the next town over for a few years. But the dream life was shattered when a crazed individual in a stolen boat, who was likely bei...
Thanks for sharing this Patrick, literally insane! Especially for the woman on the sailboat, but also all the bystanders, it must have been quite a horror movie to find themselves in! ;-)
If we've reached a point that people can't even sit on their boats with no fear of being killed by a random idiot, then it's definitely not looking good! ;-) Let's hope in the justice system in charge of this case, and that you can soon update our members...
With all due respect, what do you mean
by "If we've reached a point [...]"? Accidents and crazy sh$t happen all the time, everywhere, no? I've been to Newport Beach and loved it. But why would that place, or any place, be exempt from harm? Cheers Marc
Hi Mark, agreed that accidents or crazy things might (and do!) happen anywhere, even if this definitely looks like to me either a crime or the direct consequence of a crime...
What I meant here is just that a boat anchored in a harbor, even more so in an "upscale" location, is probably one of the last places on Earth that people (myself included!) would perceive as dangerous for their safety....obviously, this should serve to e...
You're right Marc!
But most of the time, most people, when they're in "safe" and "upscale" surroundings, they unfortunately let their guard down. I do this myself. Many of the members of WatchProSite live in environs where it's safer than average, and almost all of us get l...

Yup, quiet Thursday morning. Sun is just coming out...
I'd be lazing on the top deck, yawning lazily, stretching, thinking about how the day will be... And what's that boat doing, heading straight for me. It will turn. It must turn. It's not turning. Oh my goodness! Run! Abandon ship! Help, Fire, Murder, Poli...
nothing is guaranteed, everything can change in a fraction of a second!
This is sad, still there is much worst… Enjoy every second of the best of times!
Note to self, don't wear a nice watch anymore...
Life all of a sudden just got much worse... If I can't enjoy a nice watch...
Everything in live is relative
Stolen boat crash in Newport harbor War in Ukraine (bit further away from Hollywood) Ps the above is not meant cynical and having a boat stolen and crashed really sucks because regardless how much premium you paid, you know that the insurance will find so...
True! Just something very unexpected, in an increasingly dangerous world!
Who knows. Maybe after this, there will be more stolen boats in the future!
