STOLEN SURFBOARDS ONLINE
Generally, surfers are not wealthy and surfboards are not cheap. Many surfers work hard to earn the money to buy a surfboard. Unfortunately there are low-lifes willing to steal a surfboard for any number of reasons. This site is dedicated to assisting our surfing brothers and sisters that have been victim of a rip-off in the recovery of their board. Our mission is to spread the word (and photos, if available) about any stolen boards in circulation and help shut down the low-lifes.
The GALLERY is a service provided for free. We don't believe that we should charge someone money when they've already been ripped off once. Costs and overhead are being kept as low as possible so as to not have to charge for the service. We do, however, have Friends that provide us with links and outlets. Please visit their sites to show appreciation for their support of this work.
HOW TO is simply that, how to go through the process of reporting a stolen board.
REPORT A BOARD will (eventually) allow one to submit all the information needed for the Gallery, including a picture of the board. One can also report a board thru the forum using the STOLEN BOARDS PHOTOS thread in the FORUM..
The FORUM is provided to discuss the problem of surfboard theft, security, favorite rides, best fish taco, the physical attributes or lack thereof in the low-life that would steal a surfboard or whatever. The discussion board will be heavily monitored for content, validity and editorial feel. There is NO 1st Amendment in the Forum. It is privately owned and maintained. We reserve all rights on the discussion board however there's not much (other than SPAM) that will bring the ire of the moderators. If you're visiting to see some of the photos (stolen surfboards, trip photos, other stuff), go ahead and register to let folks know that this effort is supported. It's free, and we don't sell mailing lists (your email addy is between you and us and no one else). From time to time, the Forum will be used to provide announcements about STOLEN SURFBOARDS ONLINE and the web site in general. Also check the STOLEN SURFBOARD PHOTOS section in the Forum as some folks have chosen to publish their stolen board information there.
CONTACT US will submit some email to the staff and management of STOLEN SURFBOARDS ONLINE.
