I called a few minutes ago and he answered but didn't say anything. I kept saying hello and asking about the raft. After lots of heavy breathing by the guy, I hung up. Please call this guy and ask about the raft. Ask if he'll send you pictures. If so and they match the ones linked to earlier in this post, please post here.

Thanks for your help.

I responded with some questions via email last night and haven't heard anything.

This scenario is my worst nightmare of when I'm hauling my raft around on its trailer....

It might be worth checking out the flea market in Commerce City this weekend. I think they're open Wednesdays too.

Good luck, and remember, if you catch them, don't leave marks!

He deleted the posting- must have realized that he was fixing to get himself caught; or he sold it.

You might be able to get an IP address from a CL admin, but I kind of doubt it.

Anybody still have the CL email address? Or the phone number? Might be able to get a reverse directory and an address. Make an "anonymous" call that a stolen boat is at such-and-such address. Or, arrange a blanket party with raft paddles.....

It looks like the ad has been removed. You need to call the sheriff with the phone number. They can track that person down in a variety of ways. If the fuzz won't help, hire a private investigator, gather all of the information, take it to the police to make their job nice and easy, and get your boat back. It's cheaper than buying a new one and you can sue them for the private investigator fees once they are convicted. Hell, you can sue them for the fees even if they aren't (remember O.J. was guilty in civil court...)! Of course those pieces of shit probably don't have any money to sue for, but your diligence could see their post-prison wages garnished.

Oh, and if you find them, HELL YES LEAVE MARKS! You've got to get in that ass!
