What about Statefarm?

I want to insure a 38 ft scarab hull around 60-65K. I assume 2% of hull is standard in Florida?


I was thinking around 1800 bucks a year? Is this a ballpark fiqure?

Come on....that is ridiculous...what a way for the insurance companies to rip off people by using the policy holders location to overcharge them....they're as bad as the oil companies at ripping people off.

Got 4 estimates and all were thru progressive agents. Actually it was real reasonable. Went with a $5k deductible cause I wouldnt dare make a claim anyways as they'll cancel me anyways. I dont think insurance god writes fl. policies anymore.
