I have spotted an advert on Facebook marketplace with what looks like a stolen Solo.
Is anyone aware of one going missing. It looks like a very valuable boat.

Based on the content of the boat, this is almost certainly Solo 5529, "Nicki", a Winder II with (what was) a Selden D mast. She was stolen from Papercourt SC in early May this year.
I have reported the boat stolen with Surrey Police (crime report SYP-20230617-0557) and if anyone has further information, please provide it to them.
And protect your boats from people like this "Owen Field".
Looks highly suspicious. The trailer is connected to a car in the photo and appears to have been driven with the mast up, hence the bend. The seller does`nt even know that its not called a pole. Trolley and trailer probably worth the asking price. Worth a police crime report.
I have no information about this boat, and it may well be a genuine sale- but with our boats spending 99% of their lives unattended in an open area- its important that we all look out for each other
