On Friday morning at approximately 3am (23/9/22) two vessels were stolen - one from the Parks Victoria Marina and the other from a Swing Mooring. Both boats drifted onto St Kilda West beach, and have since been recovered, but items have been stolen from inside at least one of the vessels.
|
We have conducted inspections of all vessels on swings, but we don’t believe any other vessels were targeted.

If you see this person (pictured) or any suspicious activity, please contact Damien urgently on 0412 137 183.
