Re: catalina27-talk: Boat Insurance

[Larry Robertie]

Dude, I'm thinking, for the value of the boat I can take whatever hit they throw at me.  All I really care about is they cover the liability.  Geeze just don't touch my house. Then again, if I owned one of them nice new 350's well maybe. Larry Robertie Cheeky Monkey Boston, MA [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: holy smokes! I pay Allstate 240 a yr for my 32 foot piece of cardboard thats only good for racing. then again, I heard Allstate doesnt cough up until the day yer priest shows up to administer yer last rites. though call, that one --tf Wow! So, I got this letter in the mail from BoatUS (West, EE, whatever) The thing was a solicitation for boat insurance. I figure, what the heck, I'll get a quote from their on line site. So... On a 27 foot, 1986 Catalina. $300k liability, $15k agreed value. NO trailer or personal belongings coverage. $1k for medical payments. $270 deductible and a token $500k for fuel spills. In Massachusetts. They want $729 a year. WITH a C&V (read $300+) the first year. My current coverage is about $350, for the same specs. Hmmmm... let me think a moment.
