DETAILS:
A single hander anchored in the south end of Prince Rupert Bay was awakened at 1:00 AM by noise on deck. Somewhat disoriented, he unlocked and went up to the cockpit where he encountered 2 men, one with a gun.
The thieves stole his laptop, phone, VHF, cash and demanded his credit card and PIN. He informed them he did not have a credit card and then they left.
The next day he informed other boats anchored nearby and made a report to the police.
CSSN NOTE: PAYS operates a night-time security patrol in the NORTH end of Prince Rupert Bay, and a radio call from the locked cabin may have prevented this incident.
