Old azz cat insurance?
Ok, I know there is no way I'm going to get full coverage on my "beater" that I'm rebuilding but is there any liability insurance available? If I loose the boat, I can deal with that but the last thing I want is to be forbidden from running in poker/fun runs or worse yet, contacting someone else's boat either at the dock or underway.
Boat is an 81 and will likely be under 90.
Thoughts?

Good question! I'm interested in what the pros answer but I've never heard of being able to just carry liability ins. Too many factors involved, passengers, and most of all the enviormental coverage and it's my understanding YOU can set the value of your boat? If the ins co thinks their at too much risk they'll require a survey to confirm value Mine did.

One issue we see often with owners restoring their older boats is that the boat has an exposed motor and/or over transom exhaust. This can get tricky as most insurance carriers don't want to write these boats, even with liability only. Or, the rates may be quite high.
I see you have a Shadow Cat, is it a 26' Ultra Shadow Cat?

Good info. Boat is fully getting redone, total core job.
Unfortunately it's older then the Ultra Shadows, it's an 81 30ft "ram wing" with OB's so no exposed motor/exhaust

Can you email me your photos and I'll talk directly with some of my underwriter friends? I have a few insurance carriers that I'd like to approach.
