Stolen Kelowna boat found in the Lower Mainland

A boat stolen from Kelowna has now been recovered in Abbotsford.

The ski boat was taken from the parking lot of Banner Recreation Monday morning.

Video surveillance captured the theft on camera.

“Since the theft, the Kelowna RCMP hit the streets, worked extensively to develop leads and spent countless man hours on this investigation, which spanned multiple jurisdictions,” said Cpl. Jeff Carroll. “As a result of contacts with several known prolific offenders in the Kelowna area and throughout the Southeast District, [RCMP] successfully tracked the stolen vessel to the Lower Mainland.”

The boat and trailer, which retail for about $150,000, appeared to be undamaged.

Arrangements are being made to send it back to the Okanagan.
