Default 90 29' Mach 1 Coverage needed.

I need to find good coverage on my 1990 29' Mach 1 single 330hp.

Don’t get me wrong I can find insurance by just making a phone call but the numbers I keep getting are ridiculous! It’s not a $30k boat.

I have an excellent driving record. At least the last 5 years of it.

Are you referring to a 1990 ENDEAVOUR 290 Mach 1? If so, what value are you trying to insure at?

What numbers are you getting back that you think are bad?

Unless I am missing something that seems like a very easy and inexpensive boat to insure.

If you leave me the details above, I'll reply back with a number for you.

Yes but you have a Twin engine Fountain which is just slightly better than a single 29 mach 1 That the cheapest I was quoted was $758 year.

Thats what I meant my boat in honesty is a litter better and I got that rate so you should be able to get in that range.

That would be great if you could. I wonder if they have a multi boat program that way all 3 or 5 of them would be safe??

FYI, I already tried to rate you with Safeco when we talked. They will also require a marine survey to bind coverage. That will cost you $12 - $15 per linear foot. Also, make sure the agent actually gets your boat approved by Mike K. in underwriting PRIOR to issuing you a policy if they try to.
