OK, this may be a touchy subject, but forwarned is forarmed I always say. (Well, not always) Our last shore diving excursion was to Bonaire. Common practice there is never leave you car locked, leave windows down so nobody is tempted to break the windows for access. We never bring much with us when we are shore diving
anywhere, but on Bonaire we had sunglasses stolen, and the contents of our car was "gone through" regularly.
The theft of the sunglasses was just a bother, but it was sort of freaky wondering what anybody might have done to our lunch while we were underwater. It seems that the thieves were not interested in stealing extra tanks which was at least a good thing.
I'm assuming (there's that awful word again!) that things will be about the same on the Big Island. Are just the "normal" precautions enough, or is there a new set of rules for out there?
Thanks for any input.
