Two inflatable boats were reported stolen from Oak Bay Marina on the same day, with one later recovered.

The first report on Sept. 16 was for the theft of a ­rigid-hulled inflatable and motor, with Oak Bay police passing the details along to the RCMP Pacific Shiprider Program.

A 41-year-old man was arrested in Cadboro Bay with the items.

Also recovered was the motor from an inflatable ­dinghy reported missing the same day. The owner told police he had an outboard motor on another boat he owns stolen from the same dock.
