Unauthorized, Nighttime Nassau Boarding
At 4AM our catamaran was boarded, as we slept, by a naked male. We understand this is not a single incident. We had heard of night boardings at the Nassau Harbour Club and the anchorage east of that location – all hearsay was that cash was taken from wallets.
We are anchored just off the Green Parrot / BASRA west of the bridge.
It appears these are becoming more frequent in Nassau and cruisers should probably know for their protection.
We had the door locked and, after hearing noises (and the cat was making a funny sound), we put on the cockpit lights and activated an alarm (from inside the boat). The intruder dove over the side… The Defense Force was notified and took a report.
