Police want to hear from anyone with information about a boat stolen from Tyndale St, Onekawa, Napier, on Friday 3 August around midday.

The 18-foot fibreglass boat is white with a green stripe with the name Hallucination on both sides, and has an in-built six-cylinder motor. It was covered with a silver tarpaulin at the time it was taken.

A witness has advised that two men were seen taking the boat - one man is described as 30-40 years old, approximately 5 feet 11 inches, and of a large build. He was reportedly wearing a red singlet and a grey shirt. The witness was not able to give a clear description of the second man.

The pair left the property towing the boat behind a dark blue Ford Transit van, registration UF5016.  

If you have any information about the whereabouts of this boat or the men involved, we would like to hear from you. Call Napier Police on 06 831 0700, or information can be provided anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
