Killaloe Coast Guard Unit wishes to offer its support to the local Killaloe Ballina Search and Recovery Unit who discovered that the two 90hp engines from its rescue boat were stolen. It is appalling that any could steal engines from a craft that is clearly marked Search & Rescue and a voluntary body who devote their time to saving lives. This is not the first occasion that thieves have struck in the local vicinity as an engine was stolen from our own boat a couple of years ago.
Locals are asked to report any suspicious behavior in the area especially around boats.
