100,000 liability ??..... you can do more damage by hitting one boat at the marina nowadays....this is not a good policy.

Something is wrong..., I had cruisers for 10 years before the Fastechs and BOAT US rates, coverage, and claims service can't be beat on those types of boats. Even having been a customer for 10 years with multiple boats they wouldn't touch the Fastech's when I bought the first one. (One agent admitted they outsource that coverage completely). I'm suprised they even sent this to you cause it's obviously not their bag.

Were you a member of BoatUS and trying to insure a cruiser. Non-members and faster boats get terrible rates compared to the above.

Was a member, and tried to insure a 311, and a 24' Chapparal w/ single 454. Prices were horrid. Never tried a cruiser - maybe someday.

Their claims service is superb. Just 2 weeks after hurricane Isabel destroyed the east coast 95% of Boat US members had settlement checks. I had a claim in the late 90's and since I had one of their surveyors inspect the boat 6 months earlier they paid a $6,000 claim without hardly coming to look at the boat.....ask how many Progressive customers can say that!!

Mike,
Didn't initially respond to this thread thinking it was a joke. If you're serious, that's insane!! My '89 311, full coverage except for the silly spill premium, $530.00 per year, not six months, per year. State Farm.

In my experience, wherever you have you car policies will be cheapest.

Dave
