Default reporting potential stolen items on Craigslist

So when I look at this item I think hmmmmm, why do they have the motor but no boat or controls for it? The only thing I can think of is that it is stolen.

How would someone report something that looks like a potentially hot item to the appropriate authorities?
Do they troll Craigslist for this kind of thing?

The police probably do troll Craigslist looking for items recently stolen; however, unless you have specific information about this particular motor being stolen, I don't think that you're going to get much interest.

I agree that the ad does raise suspicions, but I don't think that is enough.

"What else floats?"

"Small rocks!"

Don't want it to be a witch hunt. Just suspicious and Craigslist is a popular place for tweekers to sell the items they steal from you.
