Sorry for your loss. I hope it was insured.
My understanding is most boats in that area are stolen are used to haul drugs.
Hopefully you get it back with minimal damage.

It's not my boat but I've sailed her a few times. Feels like part of me is missing seeing her gone. Thanks for the comment, Ken. - Sam

A picture would be really helpful.
As for drug smugglers, they soon came to the realization that using a boat everyone was looking for was a pretty stupid way to transport their product! At their profit level it was/is a lot more efficient to just buy one.

I will post a picture of the boat if I can find one. Have plenty taken ON the boat. just not of it.
Thanks for your reply. - Sam

Who ever stole it probably took sailing lessons on it or chartered it, thats how they would know when/where/what/how to take it and operate everything. If I was the investigator I'd be looking at last 3 to 6 months of customer records.
