Be on the lookout for STOLEN encampment items


Jamaica Rose

Recommended Posts

The Port Royal Privateers are in need of your help. On January 21st, their trailer, with ALL of their gear, tents, tarps, poles, stoves, props, tools, accessories, treasure chest, EVERYTHING the group owned to build an area to entertain the public, was stolen from it's storage place in San Bernardino. Please keep a watchful eye out for things being sold, especially in Southern California, but also on E-Bay, Craigslist, other living history forums, etc.

If you have any information, contact the PRP at: prpboard@yahoo.com

Info on trailer:

2006 Pace Trailer

12 Ft White closed trailer with side door and rear door and ramp

License plate # 4HM2469

Vin #: 4P2FB121X6U072862

Inside modifications includes compartments

built in's (however, they can be removed).

We hope to get a photo of the trailer and some of the props posted here soon.

Please spread the word to any living history or reenactment groups you might belong to.

Thank you for any help you can offer, and at least for taking the time to read this

As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words:

"My treasure to he who can understand."

Ahoy Jamaica Rose!

Beside the physical specs listed was the trailer marked or lettered in any way that would make it conspicuous now or after a repaint.... raised lettering, roof rack, vents, etc.??????

I can only guess at the monitary value of the trailer and its contents let alone the time to construct these pieces of gear.

If PRP is in need of some coin or two, perhaps an auction, donation or raffle could be setup on site to help these folks reestablish themselves, please give a hail down to the deck.

The inside modifications, even if ripped out, will leave holes that will be easy to spot, even if patched up.

Thank you, and everyone, for your concern.

The trailer is not painted with our group name or any other customized work. We had plans for painting the group's name on the side of the trailer. We had recently upgraded from our old open trailer (with name painted on sides), to this new closed trailer. We had a contest going for the design to put on the sides. But hadn't had time to carry it out. DRAT ... that might have deterred the thieves.

The contents inside the trailer had been gathered, built, and modified over the 16 years of our group's existence. But many of our group members have personal tents and props that we can bring to events. It will work out, and in the long run, may be a blessing in disguise, by giving us faster camp set ups and tear downs.

Good news....

The trailer has been recovered.

It is currently in an impound yard and we have yet to see if the contents are still inside.

Hoping for the best! :P

Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

Indeed, let's hope for the best.

Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!

What a fortuitous outcome... Huzzah! biggrin.gif

Still hoping that the contents are intact.

GOOD NEWS -- The trailer is back home, in good shape. Thanks to the Rialto Police Dept. About half of the contents are gone, but the tents, shade flies, and poles are there. Having these items back is a good thing. Getting back the tents and trailer itself represents a major investment that has returned. YAY! Cook stoves, tables, tools, jacks, and more are missing, but a lot of these items are not easily identifiable. THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR INTEREST, CONCERN, and HELP.

I just want to know if they caught the thieves? And if so will they tell where the rest of the missing goods are? Glad it was returned and that you have some of it back.

I gather the police found the trailer left unattended on the street. No one has been caught that I know of. A pox on the scummy thieves.

Thanks for yer concern,

Now that the trailer is back.

First - I'd get a hitch lock or some type of wheel lock for the unit.

Second - I'd paint the roof top as one big jolly roger identifiable from the air. wink.gif

Tis interesting of what was stolen. Aye, a scurvy pox on th' devils that took the pirate possessions.

Liam... tis not th' first time Pirates have been a victim of thieves. Hell, m'self had one of m' prize swords stolen... from right out of m' locked vehicle.

Well, Rose... sounds like whomever took those items plan to use them or sell them at the very least within their own groups of sorts. Blasted devils!

I LOVE the roof top idea. VERY CLEVER. I'll pass on the idea to the new officers of our crew.

I would also put the name of the group ON the SIDES of the trailer.

Oh, definitely.

We had plans to put the name on the sides, like the previous trailer. It just hadn't happened yet ... and then the trailer was stolen.

I think everyone in the PRP agrees it is urgent we get the name put on the side of the trailer right away now. But the roof idea was very clever - then police can spot it from the air very easily.

If you have the paint and template, go ahead. But do the sides first, because to be frank I don't think police spend any time looking for stolen vehicles. They usually just recover them if they identify them as stolen during the course of other duties.

EDIT: Actually, probably do the front and tailgate first. That'll make it easier to identify if it is tucked between two buildings or other trailers.

"The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning."

I will pass on all these great ideas to our officers. Thank you.
