The mysterious disappearance of an electric boat has been puzzling at the Eppel boat rental on the Old Danube in Vienna since Monday evening. A few hours earlier, a tenant is said to have borrowed the boat in question, now it has disappeared along with its “captain”. The details of the alleged thief are known to the company. Whether these are correct, not yet.
The owner of the boat rental on Wagramer Strasse in Vienna-Donaustadt is angry. Around 5 p.m. on Monday the boat was rented. So far it has not been returned. The search operation on the entire upper and lower Danube remained unsuccessful until nightfall. Data transmitted to the police “Of course we know the tenant’s data,” said a post on Facebook. These have already been sent to the police. Whether they match the actual thief remains to be seen. In addition, the question arises as to whether the boat was stolen at all and is not already lying at the bottom of the river. The missing electric boat is blue and marked with the number “E 30”. It has a lifebelt mounted on the front deck and was out and about on the day of its disappearance without a parasol. The boat rental company is asking for information: “If anyone sees our boat, we ask for the relevant information!” The police also started another search operation on Tuesday .
