I have to say, Ken Collier and crew at Elton Porter have been great to deal with.
For years I have been looking for an insurance agent that really knows what they are talking about, not yessing me to death and telling me what I want to hear.
I found Ken Collier from David Woods of Pier 57 after my Florida policy was canceled by another agent. At the time the insurance companies were finding any reason to cancel Florida Policies.
I had the Gladiator torn apart and called my agent to inquire about amending the policy to reflect the boats state of disrepair. Not only did I not get a return call but midnight the nite of the expiration the policy was canceled and never to be renewed because it was a Florida Policy. That is what I get for the commission the agent was making on me, no service at all.
My experince with Ken Collier and David Barbee from Elton Porter has been the opposite, the service is excellent and their knowledge of the insurance companies and the do's and don'ts in my opinion is second to none.
I have all my families boats now insured with them and am very happy with the service and the premiums.
Remember sometimes it is better to have the proper insurance for your individual needs, not necessary the cheapest premium.

Beautiful boat, congrats.
I'll add another thumbs up for Elton Porter - I got in touch with David Barbee at EP last year, and he found great coverage for my boat at a reasonable price. I haven't needed to use my policy, but I have contacted David a few times along the way with questions and he has always been quick to respond with answers.
