Default Foremost

I got onboard with Foremost last year. Now its time to renew , and they jacked up the rate over 200 bucks !
I did not make a claim and have all the discounts and 20 +years experience .
They told me because they took hit all rates went up /
Is this true ????
I am looking for better rate ,Any ideas ?????

I think that Foremost underwrites my policy, but I'm through Wakezone. Call Stacey - it will probably end your insurance search. Mine has never gone up with her for 6/7 years - only down marginally.

That is not good news, I have been with them for 5 years and rate has always been great. Renewal comes up in Feb I hope it is not the same situation.

I've been with Foremost for 4 years through Stacey. It has doubled in that time. Was a great program at first, nothing special now.

I sent the guy Sy a pm yesterday and want to talk to him . I am also going to talk to wakezone today . Maybe there is another option other than foremost.
I trusted my car/home broker but the best they could do was offer me the increased rate of foremost or much higher rate from progressive .My broker told me they were not really in the boat market which surprised me because I live on an Island in a coastal community ???
Foremost told me all rates have gone up because they took hit but it seems that its not entirely true as there are still happy customers with them
I went from Boatus to foremost after 17 years of being charged way to much although the coverage was superior to any other boat insurance available
There must be a company that can write for this boat at reasonable cost ,yeah its got big horsepower for its size but it is still a stock boat and its pleasure rides to beach on nice days so don't really see the risk the coverage wasn't over the top it was bare bones with some discounts for safety issues but was no way close to what boatus offers (much higher cost)
