Houseboat Security

If you're lucky enough to own a houseboat, you need to think about home security just as us landlubbers do. Fortunately, the basics are the same. An article in Houseboat Magazine called appropriately, Stop that Burglar! suggests you start with these security checkpoints:

If you can get into your houseboat without a key, so can a burglar. Lock all windows and doors. Use timers on lights and the radio to create the illusion that you’re on board. Get involved with others at your marina to form a neighborhood watch group.

The article goes into more depth, so I suggest giving it a read.
