As you may already know, I sailed around the world for five years. I was in the Caribbean, and the Mediterranean. I was in Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, etc. etc. and at no time during those travels was my boat broken into. I bring her back to the Caribbean, and leave her for one month in Puerto Rico. I arrive down there the day after Easter (I think), and when I arrive, the lock has been cut on the boat. I go down below, and nothing obvious is gone, but the TV is open and under my bed is ransacked. There is a porn tape below the TV (yes, there are a few of those aboard the boat. Don't judge.) I realize the XBox is gone. The xbox, btw, is worth about $125. There are literally dozens of things that would fit in a backpack that are worth way, way more than that.

Later, I open the trash bin, and there is a single paper towel in there- which is weird, because I cleaned up the trash when I left. I pick it up, and, um, it's wet.

With a biological substance.

That appears to be.. well... let's just say there wouldn't be any problem getting DNA from this.

So apparently I arrived right after my thief left. And he had the foresight to know where the trash bin was (it's not obvious), and use it. Weird. I hid in the boat, waiting for him to come back, but later realized I had left my shoes on the dock, so he probably saw them and panicked. It's unfortunate, because I was going to scare the shit out of him, and get the cops involved.

Ah well. I think my flight was delayed too. Had I arrived on time, I might have had a really good story...
