Had to take some crazy nerve to pull it out of his driveway.
My money is on meth heads from a parish or so over. Probably have family they visit once or twice a year that live close to the owner.

I hope it is some local loser so he might be shamed then shunned from the community.

Just to get the facts straight in this thread.... The boat WAS LOCKED on the trailer, attached to his truck. It was parked in our driveway and we live on a dead end street with only about 8 houses on each side. The lock was cut when it was stolen.
Thank you so much to all of you that have posted positive things regarding our situation and have offered advice or ideas on how to track it down.
Looks like there's been some additional photos posted, so that's awesome! I only had ones that have my family in them which I would rather keep off the internet! ??
Thanks again everybody!
Hopefully the boat will be found.

A boat that is attached and locked on somebodies truck during a flood like this is obviously being used for rescues. The thieves must have been desperate to get to somebody. (I am neither OK'ing or condoning their horrible actions)
In order to figure out where they were trying to get, we have to look at where the boat was located, and what roads were open going out. They came in from somewhere and went out the same way to get wherever they were going.
While AP and LP seem likely, was there anyway to get to them? Old Hammond had bad flooding around Blvd de Province and the back part of Sherwood. East of Sharp road had flooding. I know very little about any flooding north of Florida blvd.
Did anyone in these areas look around for the boat, or the trailer attached to a truck?
What physical areas have been checked?
I feel that the LEO's are going to find it abandoned and hope that it is in good shape when found.

People just desperate to get somebody dont have the tools to quickly cut the locks on a locked trailerPosted on 8/16/16 at 5:06 pm to lsupride87

I do, but still would not take somebody else's stuff.
You have better ideas? Spill.

These desperate people would have passed many official and unofficial rescuers they could have asked for help on the way to "borrowing" this boat.
OTOH maybe they didn't want their meth lab discovered, so they couldn't risk asking for help. Either way, no sympathy.

My money is on someone needing a boat for looting.
Posted on 8/16/16 at 5:36 pm to Hangit
Why wouldn't they just knock on the door and ask if they needed help to badly?
Posted on 8/16/16 at 5:38 pm to ithad2bme
Both what you and Jim Rockford say makes sense.
Maybe it was just some scumbuckets.

That boat's probably in a barn or garage undergoing a makeover and change in registration numbers.

My money is on Methheads or Dindus using it for looting. When they spend their last dollar for drugs they'll have no money for gas and will abandon it.
As mentioned, hopefully it will be not badly damaged and covered with finger prints.

Just spotted the boat (note LA 9747 BT registration) on Fox News with a different trolling motor. This the rightful owner?
ETA: this is the rightful owner.
