Yes. Anyone intent of stealing the boat will remove the lock short the wires and start the engine.
Locks only keep honest people honest.

Must be mostly honest here in the land of convict heritage.
Boat sat on marina for 10 years before we got her, no ignition keys and doors unlocked.
Never even saw a broker when we bought her,,just told where she was and to climb aboard and check her out.
