If you can determine that he has an established business (check with California Secy of State (Business Search) under various names "Baja Haul"
"Connolly Corp" or by principal, and see if there is a listed person for service of process, address of business.
If he says he's insured, then you can make a claim. Make an inquiry at Craigslist contact info. as a different person and ask about his insurance.
Make a complaint with Craigslist if you can.
"What would make the contract void?" A fraudulent element - stated price included insurance or would get insurance, but did not intend to would be
one (intent to decieve).

Thanks for posting the photos Ron. As you can see it has a unique hull and should be easily recognized. Fishabductor, thanks for your kind words.
She was not an offshore boat but was awesome in the waters around La Paz.

What about contacting David *******, Elinvestig8r on The BajaNomad. He is an investigator. I think he is in El Rosario right now.
David,
Can you respond?

Post an ad in the boats section of Craiglist in the following sections, with photos and a statement (Spanish and English) that it has been stolen.
Offering a reward will probably help too..

Already working on it...
Latina... I am sorry for what happened to you... this kind of dishonest behavior is unacceptable, I am sure everyone here will try to help in anyway
they can.
On our part, I have just instructed my supervisors at BajaCactus, who reside in El Rosario, to try and locate either this Jim Connolly and/or his
girlfriend/wife at the Sinahi Restaurant.
They will also go to the local stores and the local police department and authorities to see if anyone knows them.
Since El Rosario is a very small town, we should know pretty quick if this guy really lives or ever lived there.
Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to help.

Good man Antonio! You seem to always be around when someone needs help.

Thank you so much Antonio. It will be a great help to know the whereabouts of JIM CONNOLLY so we can try and determine what happened to our boat
& trailer, where it happened and when it happened....
As our only contact with JIM CONNOLLY after he drove away from our house in La Paz was by cellphone, and much of what he relayed to us turned out to
be untrue, we really have no way of knowing if in fact our boat & trailer were stolen in Rosarito. They could just as easily be anywhere else.
Hopefully the photos that Ron posted above will jog someone's memory if and when they saw La Tina on the highway between La Paz and the border.
Thankyou again, everyone for keeping this search active and continuing to come up with ideas.

If he is still advertising on Craigslist, then maybe you could set up a sting, tell him, through a freind, that you have a trailer that needs to be
towed to Baja, and when you finally meet to pay him his money, you've got him. Thieves are greedy, he might go for it.

The sting idea is tempting, but we are not in La Paz for another few weeks and he could be anywhere. We need more evidence to present to the policia
when we return to La Paz regarding the theft of our boat and trailer.
Even if we can meet with him there is nothing we can do to arrest him or force him to compensate us for our loss. We need the authorities for that
and they will want as much information as we can provide.

Antonio,
I just wanted to say thank you on behalf of all fisherman and nomads. I regularily use your pemex, in fact I used it 2 days ago on my return drive
back home to los cabos.
I also wanted to say that the girl with the nose ring was extremely kind and helpful to me, she even took care of my factura for me...a 1st at any
pemex in baja!
Thanks again,
Fishabductor

It's getting worse... JIM CONNOLLY has lied to us about a whole lot more than not being insured.
One week to the day after he picked up our boat in La Paz we have a confirmed sighting of JIM CONNOLLY and his girlfriend "Dulce" and baby heading
northbound WITHOUT OUR BOAT & TRAILER in the Loreto area, which is completely contrary to the story he told us about being broken down for several
days with his truck and our property, in Ensenada.
This really begs the question: Where was our property mid-day March 9th when he assured us that our property was safe and sound WITH HIM IN ENSENADA
while he was trying to repair his broken down truck???
Now we have no reason to believe the story that his friend from Oxnard was driving down to finish our delivery because his truck obviously was not
broken down in Ensenada the day we talked to him on his cellphone. He apparently was in the Loreto area.
Given all this and the fact that he is not answering either of his cellphones or our emails we have strong reason to believe that he knows EXACTLY
where OUR boat, outboard motor and trailer are.

His info. and part of yours point to him, and his friend, being from Oxnard, ca. I looked around the boat storage areas near the harbor and did not
see anything. No one that I spoke to knew a Connolly that hauled boats. There is no Jim Connolly listed in the local phone books, sorry.
