My paw paws boat was stolen from his covered dock on the Amite River in Maurepas overnight. The boat is an Xpress Flat boat with a 40 HP yamaha 2 stroke. The boat is an early 2000's model, tan color, flat front that was in decent shape. TBH I'm not sure why anyone would want to steal it.
If anyone happens to see it in the local waters or on local buy, sell, trade, come back to this post and let me know.

Any photos? I hate people that in their minds can justify stealing something someone else works for.

Most likely sunk the boat and kept the motor. Sold/traded it for meth. Check craigslist for someone selling a motor or ask around if anyone is selling a motor. Suspect wise—-it’s family, kids of friends or someone who knows that no one is closely watching that boat. They targeted for a reason, so it’s someone with a little knowledge. Anyone out there doing work recently ? Had yetis, outboards and lawn mowers stolen and it’s always a meth head that we had some recent contact with (firewood delivery guy, cousin’s brother in law, kid of neighbor three camps down, etc).

Absolutely hate a thief. I’ll work 4 jobs before I even think about asking someone for money. And even then I’d pay it back fast

Boat was found. Paw and his cousin went and rode the river and found the boat tied up to the bank a couple miles down river. The batteries and trolling motor were stolen off of it, but better than being sunk.

Yeah. I think the people who were saying Meth had to be right. They got what they could for a few quick bucks, and was hoping no one found the rest and would come back for it.

I wasn't able to go help with the search due to football season, but if I had the time I would have done something of that nature

The trolling motor could only get them so far.
