No as the speed and the fact that it is diesel would lower the insurance premium to a more reasonable level. That is unless you are not a reasonable person to isure, i.e. accidents, a lot of claims, dui, etc.

No one pays $15K/yr for a slow skater.

Like I said diesels have their place. Trucks and shrimp boats.
Sounds like you have a fast truck. If you want to be the first to install big heavy diesels that will make a 32 boat handle like crap... go for it.

PS: I do not have a Corvette. I was only trying to make a point. My sports cars have 10 and 12 cylinders. Gasoline.

I am very proud of you and your unlimited supply of money... I don't even own a diesel truck myself I just know the specs of a few that are around and what these guys have spent on them...

There are many other threads on here about diesels in boats, why have you chosen this one?

here are some others for you
