discrepancy:Some ideas, maybe not all practical for you, but offered as a thought anyway:
- hire the crappiest-looking bomb of a car you can get
- invite a non-diving friend along for the ride to enjoy a few hours by the sea and to watch over the car
- put your valuables into a separate bag, then before you dive get horizontal and face-up to wire, clip or tie the bag under the car, perhaps to the driveshaft or the differential. Your average opportunistic thief will not think to look there unless they saw you putting your stuff there in the first place. This option is a bummer if someone steals the car!
- leave your gear with a friendly shop or hotel nearby. Smile at the owner and you might get lucky
Why not just rent a car with a secure boot/trunk? Also, clean up the car well so there is no reason to break-in in the first place.
