SABOTAGE ON THE HANDEGARD DREDGE! SOMEONE CUT MY ANCHOR LINE! AND I GOT A QUARTER OUNCE OF GOLD!

You heard right, I got to my dredge on Sat. the 11th to find my dredge anchor line had been severed with a sharp blade! Further inspection of the line found it had actually been severed twice! Once by a sharp blade and once by a more mangling uneven cut. A roughly 30 foot section of the rope had been cut out! I would not have know that save for the fact that the cut out section was still all tangled up with the 150' of line still attached to the dredge itself. Meanwhile the dredge, remaining anchor line and main suction hose had all been washed down river until a steel cable I use to secure it overnight had arrested any further move down river. If not for that cable there's no telling how far it would have gone before stopping or sinking! I could have lost everything! Today is Sun. the 12th and we have since been informed of what happened. I suspected boat prop when first trying to figure out how in the world the line could have been cut twice, due to the evidence of one cut being mangled rather than a clean cut, here's what happened; Someone (another dredger) was sniffing around 100' up from my dredge where he had no business being (remember the 500' separation rule??) and ran his boat over my line fouling it in the outboard motor's prop! Being under tension he apparently then had to cut the line to free his boat! Leaving my dredge to fend for itself! He could have at least parked the boat long enough to tie what remained of my anchor line to a tree to try and save the dredge and all my equipment on it from the river. No apparent effort was made there which really iced the cake. On a day I was not there to do anything about it! That's all I know for sure about it until I talk to the boat jockey for his story. He did try to make good for the rope by bringing a new one today to replace it, again on a day I was not present, which caused another commotion when dredger friends across the river reported what they thought was a landowner chaining my dredge to a tree, so thanks for that and keep your distance from now on. And yes I am pissed.
