Geico Insurance - Why?
 
Geico Insurance was at the Miami and Palm Beach boat show. They have some really nice girls that climb all over you to "put your info in" so, now they send me emails all the time. My insurance is expiring with my current provider so I tried Geico.

I have a relatively mid performance boat and they wont insure me. I just find it comical that they email me, now they are calling me and they insist they can insure me. But now that I have entered my info once online and second thru an agent.... They still wont insure me.


They have Miss Geico though... She is 4000 horsepower and goes 200mph. But they wont insure me.

Maybe they thought you were a pontoon guy...

Just purchased insurance for my first mid performance boat and was surprised at the companies that would not write it. For now I am with Progressive with stated coverage and had to answer several HP and speed related questions.

I have GEICO for my cars, house, umbrella, everything.... they still wouldn't insure my boat..

Try Stacy at WakeZone... she's great..

On the flip side, most boaters have cars, trucks, homes and such. Not the first time a sponsor from an industry not related to ours spends time and money supporting the sport.

The Geico commercial with the "money guy" driving the 29 fountain tho.....they don't insure that boat lol.

I use total dollar (Sy) and am very happy.

I avoid direct insurance companies like Geico and Progressive. Who do you think pays for all that advertising? My insurance agent does a great job searching out the best insurance deals for me and the rates are way better.

Another vote for Stacey at Wakezone.

since others are pitching for their person, I will start the rally for Devin and his team at Wozencraft. if you search this thread, you will find other postings for in the affirmative for Wozencraft. Devin is an avid boater himself and understands the show.....

I am not really looking for an insurance company. Just poking fun at Geico.

Advertising dollars equal not paying claims.
