Help! Thieves stole my stereo system and vandalized my 242x!

[Maximilian]

Trust me, I’m mad as hell... but is it worth the fight for my 500$ deductible? I’d love to make them pay. I’ve had the misfortune of being involved in a couple lawsuits and the only thing I hate more than thieves is lawyers and the litigation system! I will be happy man if I never have to deal with either again! Hahaha

What I may do though, is go to the media! It’s a huge corporation. Only thing they fear is bad press!

True, but wouldn't you think your insurance is now gonna go up due to the claim.

If getting back on the water quickly is the goal I would make the claim (being sure it covers all known damage coming out of the theft) and pay the deductible while concurrently looking for a reputable shop that can do the work ASAP.

$500 is cheap compared to what a new head unit and amps cost. Unless you go to small claims court (represent yourself) or can get a lawyer to take the case pro bono / free, $500 is a bargain.

Or you could just ask them to pay your deductible.

And I’m sure he’s a great guy! Hahah! I’ve just not met a lawyer that was a good guy yet! No offense!

I did ask them to. Their response was to send me the highlighted section of the contract that says they are not responsible for theft or damage. Smh

Our marina is the same way. They are not responsible for anything, just the way it is with anything anymore. Prices keep going up but the service keeps getting worse. Dockhouse is only open a few hours a day on the weekends, no more gas there, no dumpster (yet), No wake buoy never replaced, screws sticking out of walkways and trees overhanging in the driving areas(real fun avoiding with an AR) This is the first year in over 4yrs that I've seen boards and rub rail replaced on some of the slips. Years past I would just take the stuff with me to repair my own slip. and walkways to my boat. Hate to say that this might be the last year we wetslip our boat if the prices keep going up

Theft/vandalism. With the increase in boating, ramps are at capacity on weekends. The marina where I have my boat, slips are harder to find. So I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that I have been the recipient of vandalism at my slip yesterday. I had purchased bumpers to hang from sides of dock. They have been on place for over two years. They cut the zip ties and took one of the four I had. The slip is highly visible from the marina ramp. However, there are many fishing boats that find their way around the docks. Not sure if the came by foot or by boat. Most likely by boat. It’s upsetting to know the few that are scum just help themselves at others expense.
