Default Insurance on TWINS!!!, (single engine guys need not reply)

Okay there have been alot of insurance questions lately and most are mind boggling.
People saying yeah put real HP numbers up, mods ect
that is fine, i have no problem not lying to the insurance company about that ect
BUT most of these guys are running singles
So you can have a single engine 28 whatever with 700 HP and they are still going to be less than a twin no matter what HP range your in.
You have twins, hold your ass is more or less what im finding out from the insurance companies
I just got a quote on my boat from Progressive for Pennsylvania Watercraft Quote

Your 12 month quote is $3510.00



Yeah , (long inhale) cough cough , want to lace this ghanga with some crack and heroin?

WTF is up with this
I agree if you want to play, you have to pay that is fine, no problem
3500 bucks?
yeah right

Anyway, on an older rig, with TWINS now (T330's) who pays what and where do you boat, Inland or coastal?
Who is your company?

Thanks
Jason

2002 34' PQ with twin 496 HO's (850 HP) - $1700/yr

I cruise on the oceans not lakes and that is included in my package. It will differ if you are a lake boater and will depend on your driving record.

Jay I think that you will pay btwn 600 and 1200 bucks. I know a big range but look at the coverages very closely they are not all the same. Make sure they include the libility and also the damage to the environment and perhaps your drives and such.

FYI: I payed $4000 last year for a single engine 26' cat, so you are not always going to pay more for a twin!!
