Thanks Bob and Sy are the only two out there worth messing with. Beware of getting Marine insurance from a car insurance place. It's all good until you need to make a claim!!! Sy's # is 888-226-2846 |

State Farm wrote my 03 29 Fever 525efi, then cancelled it. They wont touch a 502 or bigger motor. Be very careful with them.

Bob and several others wated upwards of 1,700-2,500 we went with state farm for 550.00 although I doubt state farm would take that boat.. |
Re: Insurance Company Suggestions for new boat?
Just switched from Total Dollar to World Wide.
$1000.00 Dollars less for the exact same coverage and have no layup or navigational restrictions like the one Sy had. I also found out that my policy had been written for non Tidal waters and excluded the Great Lakes, this is where I boat :eek: Is this Sy's fault :confused: or should of I read the policy closer? All I know is I feel lucky I never had a claim and feel good about saving $1000.00 a year with a better policy. For me Bob at Worldwide is a no brainer :drink: |
Re: Insurance Company Suggestions for new boat?
it always pays to read a policy that is backing $100's of thousands of dollars.....

Re: Insurance Company Suggestions for new boat?
worldwide has me for twelve months useage and off shore up to 50 miles, i just reviewed and renewed my policy with them. like others say, beware and review what you think you are getting. make sure if you have someone else transport your boat that they have cargo insurance. my policy will not cover me if somone is transporting my boat for me. they may have a policy to cover them, butt make sure they have cargo insurance as to atleast the value of your boat.. that is what i was just told....
