High River Mounties are turning to the public for help in finding a very expensive boat motor.

Sometime late Wednesday, March 21 or early Thursday, March 22, a pontoon boat and trailer were stolen from the Foothills Signs yard across from the No Frills at 1002 18th Street S.E.

Police quickly recovered the boat and trailer at 594th Avenue, near 264th Street East but the motor, a 2015 Bavarado 300hp Mercury outboard, was missing.
