Thanks for the heads up. Hope you find your stuff, or some karma sorts out the perpetrators. The river has been trouble free for a while now, so a shame to hear it has changed. There is always a bit of ebb and flow (excuse the pun). I know of two live aboards who aren't on the river currently, one who moved off permanently, and one who is on the hard currently doing maintenance. I know the one on the hard has on occasion spotlighted and challenged delinquents in the middle of the night pocking around moored boats in borrowed dinghies. I know there is mixed views about live aboards, b

Professional burglars have a set rate from the fence for the goods they steal, saw this doco on on it years ago and it might be something like a tv or laptop $100 no matter the retail. So 5 items for a nights work = 500 but the full retail might be 10k plus? Doesnt matter to them as its turnover and quick money for whatever, but with the solar panel- an item that new is less than 200 and second hand 50 bucks maybe, that has to be either f-wits, teenagers or a scumbag boatie

Important to let Westhaven know if you are putting a different boat in your berth. They like to keep a tight control.

Yep

I bet you've scared a few thieves though. Probably without even knowing it. You probably left them traumatised and needing therapy. After all you do have a habit of putting that photo of you in drag and fishnet tights on the interweb. Jokes aside though, I think just by you and the other live-aboards having a presence on the river helps greatly. Without naming names, the live aboard that parks beside us has said he's spotlighted / challenged delinquents after dark. Doesn't happen often, but when things do happen, there are eyes and ears about.

As liveaboard I've never caught a thief, but i have towed several boats up the river, rescued a boat when the pile actually broke, secured countless sails and canvas covers and pulled lots of debris and plastic out of the river.

No offense, but that's not how it works. When both speakers push out = high pressure, when both speakers suck in= low pressure. If one pushes out when the other pulls in = no pressure. Swap the polarity to one of the speakers and I'll bet you will get your bass back. Plenty of boats have speakers facing each other and sound ok (mine included).
