"Locks are meant to keep honest people honest.
If "they" are intent on stealing your motor and or boat, "they" will"

No question , but these items are seldom stolen to use , they are stolen to SELL.

Our Carib technique is to remove the engine cover and grind it into a rocky beach.

Then mask the outboard legs , and spray them with primer.

Your engine will look 100 years old and will be passed by the thieves.

This method kept out "patched" 13 ft Boston Whaler and brand new "100 year old " 18hp Johnson attached to our stern, even visiting French islands.
