According to officers, the vessel was tampered with around 04:00 on Tuesday (14 July).
In a statement, they explained: “A grey inflatable dinghy with an outboard engine was stolen from the Jet-ski concession at La Haule Slip. The vessel had been on its trailer near the sea wall.
“The trailer was pushed down to the sea and the vessel launched. Damage was also caused to a nearby red Massey Ferguson tractor and another boat had been climbed on.”
