The 2 brokers that I talked to only have Markel or Lloyds as a carrier for a boat that old. I have calls into a couple others. The guy that has it now, says he doesn't insure it.

Whether it is a cat or a V-Hull the break off point seems to be 15 years, unless you all ready have a policy with them, or it appears to be an average speed boat.

If I bought a newer cat that didn't go over 115, insurance would be between 3-3.5%. But that is over 100K for the boat. But the overall premium is still lower.

I can't figure it out except for the salvage value of what is left after it sinks. Whatever you run over is still going to be just as fu(ked up, so it can't have anything to do with the liability.

My Magnum insurance went up to $2200, and that boat isn't worth 30K when it is complete. That is a 7% premium. WTF.

Tom. Beside the fact that it is a fountain and th eugly graphics, what is wrong with this boat?

Looks pretty sweet to me except for the third engine.

3 engines is fine. I only know one triple engine boat that always has problems. :mad:

Have you seen Geritt's avatar? It says "speed up global warming", "I'm COLD". :evilb:

My little dingy was out on the water this Saturday, although it had some minor technical difficulties. I must have missed you guys running your boats.:drink:

I'd rather make it home slow than make it home fast on two with a $10000 bill headed my way.

BIP.

Havn't seen Trojan man since he left with you and the watermelon distributor. Did you loose them somewhere?

Nope, they came to the barn on Sunday for dinner.

I am looking into becomming a major investor in a tow boat company in miami, if any of you guys are looking to relocate. :drink:

I'm in for managing the franchise in Key West:ernaehrung004:

That is actually a Cuban taxi service that is camoflaged into a boat towing service.

THere is another one out there somewhere priced like this. I'll have to find it again.

Yea,, but I bet lou will owner finance you, and take you to vegas every once in a while, and maybeee,, just maybe if you arent late on any payments, let you transfer your equity into the motorcoach should you not want the sunsation after a few years. , thats worth the extra 20k right there. :ernaehrung004:

Um because at the rate your going your going to be buying a ring, and living in miami, in the next few months, and I dont want your new wife taking half my shyt as well as yours. lol :evilb:

Good point. I will send him an email.

You should sell me the Mares and owner finance it. :ernaehrung004:

That would be a deal there.

Besides the deal was ,, I get something going down here that we can all get into,, Wade has the right Idea. :drink:

Because your insurance will be too high,, lol and I dont know how I could put a permanent lock on the engine hatch, :evilb:

I can get that covered. If you need coverage on it, I can get you in touch with who can get you taken care of. 3% +- of the hull value.

Yea, that sounds pretty good.

Especially since a boat was stolen from where I keep mine last month. :party-smiley-004:

Yours was to far back in the pile and they couldn't get to it. Good thing they park those fountains and sutphens in the way to make it harder to get to the good stuff. :evilb:
