Stolen/Missing    Starboard side door from swim platform of 89 Wellcraft St. Tropez

Another Door Missing At Woodland...Plus more...

Bill, 
I must admit I read that article on the missing Starboard door of the 89 St. Tropes and thought you were talking about my boat. I as well have an 89 St. Tropes and am also docked at Woodland Marina. The Starboard door from our swim platform was also missing (stolen) since last year. I have called everywhere trying to find another door like that and have had no luck. I never thought anyone stole our door, what we thought happened was the door opened during a storm and one of the dock lines caught it. After reading the story on your web-site it make me wonder. If nothing else our boats will look the same, missing the same door. While we have everyone looking for this door, we can also have them look for our Gensen Marion radio and Sony Stereo and speakers which were stolen from our boat on the dock at Woodland........

Short Story For Our Fellow Pool Boaters ....

Chapter 1 Small Door

The swim platform of our 89 Wellcraft St. Tropez has two small compartments. Port side houses a shower head and the starboard side for storage. The small doors, 8 x 16 inch are secured with a stainless steel piano hinge and 14 rivets.


Chapter 2 Big Pain

Between Sunday, 04/22, afternoon and Thursday, 04/26, somebody popped 7 of the 14 rivets and walked off with the starboard side door.


The end.

The only good use for this little door is covering the compartment of my boat. I suppose the door would also cover the same compartment of another St. Tropez. 

Any one know of another St. Tropez on the pool that needs this door? The best security for our boats are the eyes and ears of our fellow boaters.

We appreciate any help our fellow boater can give.
