Insurance For Go-fast's
 

Just got my insurance quote for my 41 Apache this year. It went up $1000.00. When you start checking around for other companies, they don't want to handle anything older then 10 years, especially with the speeds these boats will do.
ANYBODY HAVE A GOOD INSURANCE COMPANY IN MIND !!

Try Sy Goldberg of Total Dollar - (845) 356-7251.

I've tried several. I thought the $1777.00 I was billed seemed high for an '88 Bullet. Quotes have been in the $22-2400.00 range. Some with less coverage than I already have. So I fed-exed the premium which is due tomorrow for a boat that probably wont get wet this year due to lack of engine and $$ tied up in another Bullet project. If I did'nt renew my existing policy, time comes when I do it will be at the quotes mentioned above. All I can recomend is look in back of powerboat magazine and start calling. "911" is the reason I was told this is the way it is.

Blackadar Marine did me right 3500.00 on a 2004 30 Spectre Cat O/B. Everyone else told me it would be cancelled when it gets to the underwriters.

Bob at World Wide Marine got me all set.

call Sy Goldberg at TotaL dollar

Ins is going to keep going up from now on with High Power boats they are sticking it to Us owners because of the serious claims over the past few years and that 9/11 thing has ruined all INS co's

Don't forget the F****** lawyers:mad:

call sy, he's an old fart so don't call after matlock is over or you'll wake him up :D

Georges,
attorneys arent the problem its knuckeheads that go out and buy 100mph boats as their first or second boat and then wreck. That is what drives premiums up. They are looking at the likelyhood of a claim being made while owning a particular type boat.

d-h
Like in any field there are good & bad ones but suing Oreo and McDonald cause an attorney wants publicity and convices some no self control slob that he'll make a buck does not necessarly put your profession in the best of light.

BTW,
$1700 for 1994 Cigarette Cafe in insurance. However it has to be rigged so it won't go over 70 MPH.

2001 Top Gun w/ 500 EFI's, 200k agreed value is $4200 a year through Sy. This is the average.

I cant find insurance for my comanche! this is going to blow!

I have Sy also,

89 Top Gun, inland lakes 1400/yr

and it did not go up this year! :D

Now there's a boat that needs good insurance! HAHA - Feel free to rip me a new one John I deserve it - lol - BH

I don't get it, I hear of a lot of cruisers running into things here at LOTO but not an offshore boat yet. I hope all the sea-ray owners got the same increase.

It may be like the airplane industry. THe insurance companies distroyed the piston twin market.

You must have forgotten about the 42' Fountain @ LOTO last Memorial Day that ran into a dock sinking a Sea Ray.
