Default Florida guys - boat insurance

Before we moved down to the Cape Coral, Florida late last year................... American Family insured my boats for over the last twenty-five years back in Missouri, well, I'm sure you all know AF doesn't insure anything down here, so I went with Progressive and the annual rate was about 30% higher than what I paid back at LOTO, anyway, just got the renewal and it's higher by another 10% for the upcoming year, what insurance company can I trust and get a descent price from.

Thanks for any info, I appreciate it, Jim (aka joey)

Only a 40% increase isn't bad. Ours went up 3x, cheapest I found was progressive.

Hey Dave,
I may be way off here but I thought we had your insurance policy.... if so, I think you meant to say Stacy at Wake Zone... again, maybe i"m wrong and referring to the wrong boat but we just had your policy on your 04 Renegade....

Mine did too... Started the policy at the end of the year, and went up about 30%-35%...However, my renewal for the second year went back to the first year rate.
(Progressive that is)
