Did I read that right.......The device is made up of dual yellow hulls.....also has an emergency beacon which quick flashes twice every three seconds.
How can you lose it.
Catamaran Sub 
Bloody Mexican tossers
Sounds pretty big, it's yellow, I bet I know who stole it. And I bet all their friends are all aboard, many more of them living next door (in the other hull). And the band begins to play.

Yellow submarine! George, Ringo, Paul and John lost at sea? Is Yoko swimming close by!
If it is expensive how much could you get salvaging it?
