Caribbean, Dominica, Roseau – Yacht Boarded
Published 16 years ago, updated 6 years ago
We spent two nights on a mooring in Roseau, and on the second night, August 12th, 2008, the boat was boarded at 4:15 a.m. by two men.
I have installed driveway alarms on both of my sugar scoops and the men set them off when they came on board. The audible alarm scared them and one jumped off the boat while the other tried to hide in his small inflatable under my boat.
When I spotted him he rowed away to pick up his friend in the water. No one was hurt, and nothing was taken.
