A catamaran called "Fritz the Cat" was robbed during the night of Friday 11 December in the anchorage off Cartagena, just in front of the club nautico, in the middle of all the other boats.

The thieves came with a small boat and stole a computer, cell phones and cameras. They also tried to break open a safe but failed.

The boat was locked but they managed to get inside through a hatch.
