Skater insurance
 

Does anyone have a way to get good insurance coverage for less than 7 to 8 grand for a 32?

Re: Skater insurance
 

I will have a new program shortly and the rates should be more realistic.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Let me know on the new program I need insurance also

Re: Skater insurance

Maximus, who insures your Spectre? I was just cancelled by Blackadar and need to replace my policy in 30 days.

thanks

Re: Skater insurance
 

Max, Explain the coverage your talking about. Does that apply to financed boats? I have Blackadar at the tune of 3200 full coverage. Allstate my insurer told me 1500 but when we went to write it the agent told me they will cancel you when this policy gets to the underwriters,so you might want to save yourself alot of headaches and go with someone else.I thought 3200 last year was expensive till I heard what the premiums are on alot of cat people this year. I was tickled to be paying the same amount.

Frank,

give me a shout I'll give you the details.
Major ins. co's WILL insure your boat. And will issue umbrella policies.

THATS DIRT CHEAP.
WHO'S IT THROUGH?

Re: Skater insurance
 

4200.00 on my 36 eliminator daytona. It sucks but it could be worse. It just went up

Re: Skater insurance
 

And who ever said you can no longer get insurance on a cat? :confused:

Sy's the guy to buy.....your insurance from. He has a long history with insuring performance boats.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Sy,
My insurance expires 9/14.
You have insured my vee bottom boats in the past.
Can I count on you to cover my cat?

Re: Skater insurance
 

If you call your ins co ask them for a boat ins application. Fill it out attach pics of boat ( NOT ONES WITH ROOSTER TAILS) .

MAJOR POINT. When asked about HULL POWER RATING. Be truthful. and reasonable. This could mean you getting ins. or not.

ex. 30 Spectre Hull rated 1200+ hp I said 800. W/ 2 x 300's boat had 600hp....They are happy.

Also....FLAT REPLACMENT COST. This is where you have to be realistic on Value. if you paid too much for your boat be honest with yourself and bite the bullet on replacment costs.

Big cats , Stepped bottem V's with big power are going to be tough.

Question: While We ALL want to watch Reggie and Mike battle it out in a speed run this week.............With insurance being so tough now, Is this the smartest time to be doing this race.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Major Insurance Companys will not usually go over 500 hp.
You are probably void.

Re: Skater insurance
 

I think you slipped between the cracks with the underwriters. Any time speed of the boat is brought up, over 70 they won't insure. Any hull over 20' does not have a hp rating. There are no limits/ratings on hp for your 30' boat. I have owned 5 cats over the years and if you are truthful the "major ins co" will not insure. Not truthful, no claims paid. Blast away at me saying I am wrong..... I am not.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Hey Maximus,
I am also looking for ins. on a 2005 32 skater. Are your an ins. agent yourself or do you have a company that you can recommend.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Cats are very expensive to insure. I know that Allstate is doing its special promotion again on there coverage for performance boats and it is a great deal. V-hull, all they want to know is the horsepower. They do not ask the speed. According to our local agent they are in the "don't ask speed mode"
This happened last year when I insured my V-hull and saved a ton of money.
Ask your agent. If they are good they can find this information.

Re: Skater insurance
 

Get good ins. :( from now on.

Re: Skater insurance
 

what happened?
