lost pontoon style float raft

kabsgram · 04-25-2016, 02:17 PM

Hi,
My pontoon style float raft was missing when I arrived to open my cottage this spring. I haven't been there since last October so I am not sure how long it has been gone. I am on the east side of Long Island so if it floated away it probably went in the direction of Rattlesnake Island. It is aluminum with pontoon floats and a green top. It is marked on 4 sides with my name. Please post if anyone has seen it. Thanks. My grandkids got to use it for the first time last summer so I will be so disappointed if it is not found.

You didn't take it up on shore for the winter? You left it in the water? Something suspicious here.

It doesn't seem all that suspicious. Unfortunately people will steal these things and sell it for scrap value. I would guess that the OP is just trying everything they can think of in the hopes that it is returned. The fact that they say their name is marked on 4 sides would mean that if it is found intact, they can prove they own it.

The OP said, if it floated away! It cant float away from dry land, and we didn't have a Noah's Ark event this past fall or spring.
