Best thing to do would be to buy it on a collection basis, then turn up at the seller's house with proof that it is yours.
It always amazes me that some folk are prepared to give themselves a lifetime's reputation as a thief for what? £20? If you are in a marina, then eventually it will become general knowledge that things only ever get stolen when a certain person is there.

Yes, that's the thing, the amount the tea leaves will get for it is minimal compared to the cost of replacing it. I doubt they would even get £20 for it, I imagine it will get weighed in at a scrap metal yard somewhere for £3.

Chaggers - send me a PM if you see one out our way, Halifax, if you need it collected & delivered we might be able to oblige.
If it's kids, they probably lobbed it in the canal not far from your boat.
Seems unlikely to me that such an item would be sold onwards via Ebay.
