This may have been discussed here before, not sure. Anyway, I read recently that there has been a problem with catalytic converters being stolen at boat ramps on several lakes, including Rayburn. Anyone on here had that happen to them?

Not boat ramp related but we have a rash of these in my town. We are currently working several different rings that do this all day, everyday across the state.

I had never heard of it until Hawkeye's was stolen. Never even thought it was an issue. He cranked up the Dodge after we loaded my boat and dang was that V-8 Hemi LOUD!

So I would have to assume that they use a sawzall, how are other people around the ramp not hearing this racket being made? Those ramps are bound to be busy.

My neighbor had his stolen off his car right in front of his house at 3:00am ..Guess it does not take long to steal.. Also heard of someone trying to steal on during the night.. He jacked up the car but the jack failed and crushed him.. He won't steal no more..
