[Rhodes22-list] Outboard Antitheft Measures

As my "almost new" Rhodes 22 (hopefully) will be delivered in the not too
distant future, I am thinking about antitheft measures for the outboard.  I
ordered the 9.9 hp Yamaha which is not easy to carry, but it is vulnerable
to theft.

The boat will be in a slip in a marina on the Chesapeake Bay.  Stan, with
his typical dry wit, recommends that I get more insurance than the motor is
worth.  

Although I can agree with that statement, what would you experienced Rhodies
recommend for security? In the catalogs I see various cables and devices
which lock in place, covering the mounting bolts.  Are these devices
compatible with different size outboards?

Fair winds!
