Here's the story:
Once upon a time, I met a guy through a friend at a bar... We discussed a problem I was having with a boat (it needed a new motor) He said he could help me out, yada yada yada...
a little while after (in march) I went to him with my boat, left it with him and gave him 500 bucks for a working motor. he was then going to go to a few people he knew get a motor and we were going to put it on. lots of time kept going by and he kept giving me excuses as to why it wasnt done... then about a month and a half ago the boat was towed from his property. He kept saying he was gonna get it back week after week, one excuse after another, he said the motor was all set and ready to be put on, and we were gonna do it this day and that day...
well now his phone is off, and he's moved out of the apartment. and I have no idea where he is or how to get in touch with him. I do have a contract he signed taking responsibility for anything that happened while he had it... but how can I sue some one if I dont know where he moved to?? Do I call the police and say he stole it and my 500 bucks or what? any help would be greatly appreciated!!
thanks
