Hi Folks,
I have had a trailer stolen with all my telescopes, portable planetarium for my business, etc. I thought I would let everyone know just in case you see anything at second hand stores. The telescopes are a Vixen 114EDSS with a "polaris" type mount, and my hand-made 10 inch dob, in a marine ply box about the size of a small esky. The Vixen is in a long galvanised tool box.
The trailer is a 6x4 box trailer, fully aluminium, with a flat, locked lid that opens up.
If you happen to see any of these, could you ring me asap.
Thanks a lot,
Dean
