Need Insurance Suggestion, Triple engine Baja
Hi guys
I recently acquired a 93 baja 420 with triple stock 454's. I have called a few insurance companies, and both have said they don't want to insure it, because its triple engine. Even though its a barge and far from a race boat the third engine freaks them out. Just looking for suggestions of good insurance co's
Thanks very much
Matt

Re: Need Insurance Suggestion, Triple engine Baja
That is one of the big reasons I did not buy the 420 I was looking at..
I have had offshore boats for 10+ years now... and always had decent priced insurance.. (under $1000) a year..
Called the insurance company and they said that their company policy does not allow them to insure trips... I called a couple companies and they all said the same thing.. Then I called one of the ones listed above..
$253 a month for a 11 year old boat,,, that only is capable of 60 mph and worth $90K maybe...

Re: Need Insurance Suggestion, Triple engine Baja
A friend just got a triple and they covered him because it was the continuation of a policy on his previous 35 footer. Or else they would not of issued a policy for it.
Sorry I cannot help you more. Good luck with that.

I have a 2003 Baja 442 and just received my renewal and I am in Florida. It did go up but I did have a loss this year. My trailer was stolen with a tongue lock and chains on both sides of the axles (two wheels chained together on each side. Anyway, it went up about 20 % over last year. The company is Ace USA and my policy is through my local agent. I am now paying a mere $5700.00 per year. I went from a 38 Special and paying about $2300 a year so it was quite a shock. Ace does classify the triple engines differently than the twins.
