CHELSEA — Hey New Yorkers: lock your yacht.

Two men were seen sneaking onto a yacht docked at West 20th Street and the Hudson River and making off with three television sets and a Blu-Ray player, the NYPD said.

A witness said he saw at least two men removing property from the Affinity yacht on Saturday April 18 at 11:20 p.m., according to police. Three Jensen TVs valued at $2,700 and a $150 Sony Blue-Ray machine were reported stolen, police said.

There were no locks on the boat doors, police said. No arrests have been made, according to authorities.

Other recent crimes in the 10th Precinct include:

► A 52-year-old man was assaulted on the corner 9th Avenue and West 26th Street at midnight on Sunday April 19, NYPD said. He was standing on the street corner when three men he did not know began to punch him, according to authorities.
