Stolen Mirage Drive With Turbo Fins - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

What's up BWE,

2 weeks before I am slated to move, my garage was broken into in Fullerton. They stole a bunch of stuff including my Mirage Drive with Turbo Fins.

If you all can keep an eye out that would be greatly apprecaited!

Do you have a serial number we can look for?

what kind of garage door do you have ? How did they break in?

Just trying to figure out how to make my garage safer

Will do, Poxy. Good luck getting your fins back.

I have actually been checking online lately because a buddy got his Mirage drive w turbo fins stolen at the LJ launch two weeks ago when he went to get his car after fishing. He spent over $200 getting them repaired and upgrading to turbo fins the day before! Bummer. He went by the launch the next day and asked around about them. One of the kayakers on the beach said he'd just confronted someone stealing a paddle and some wheels that morning. This Saturday some fellow BWE members and I spotted a couple guys posted up at the launch looking very suspicious. Seems like this is something that's becoming more of a problem lately. When I am not fishing with a buddy, most people who are hanging out on the beach are super cool about looking after my stuff for a few mintues. Then I take whatever I can carry with me to the car - ususally mirage drive and a couple setups.

No I do not have a serial number for the drive. Didn't know there was one.

I live in a place where we have shared garage space. The Neighbor left her garage open which in turn left mine open. So Frustrating!

Can't you hold your neighbor accountable?

What a bummer! Hope you find them or at least a good deal on replacements!

that guy is a surfer, white guy drives a smaller model silver tundra. you can catch him early in the morning rummaging through all the stuff people leave behind. Its kinda sad how irresponsible ppl are down there. That boat launch is full of items in the mornings.
