Saxon Hallows was found guilty of eight offences, including operating a boat under the influence of alcohol, interfering with the means of securing a boat and two counts of entering a boat without consent.
Hallows’ co-accused Samuel Baxendale has not been seen since the day after the incident and is wanted by NSW Police.
After watching a State of Origin game in Tathra earlier this year, the pair drove to the Merimbula Marina where they scaled a fence and boarded a tinny to “float around”.
Hallows and Baxendale also boarded a number of other boats, stealing items and letting one vessel free.
