I am finishing up a 14' Great Auk for my paddling partner and she asked about securing it when left un attended. We live in metro NY. The two obvious options are a trimmed hole in the deck or a carbon ring epoxied under the deck to use a cable lock.
Does anyone have any experience or clever ideas for protecting a boat from theft. I am going to put her name etc under epoxy on the inside but her feeling is that that may not be enough.
