Good luck and fair winds to you Alchemist .... I Will be watching how you
do.
I am in withdrawal having sailed the LO 300 for the last 7 years in my old
boat.
Bought a 1985 29 Mark 2 this spring but did not have the time to get her
race ready for this year.
Hoping to be on the start line in 2013

C&C 29-2 "Flying Colours"

Geez,
Here on Carlyle Lake we'd kill for a 115mil N-S.? Our best run is a lap
around the lake for 15mi.
We do have fairly competitive racing though; although the numbers are
decreasing.

Good luck to all participants in the LO 300 race this weekend. Our 1986 C&C
29 Mk 2 is ready for the challenge. My crew and I are confident that our
boat can handle any weather and sea conditions that could possibly happen in
this off shore race. Some very smart people designed and built our boat.

*boat can handle any weather and sea conditions that could possibly happen
in this off shore race*

Racing out to Bermuda, we felt this way about everything that we DID
encounter, but it could have been MUCH MUCH worse. We missed 50 knots out of
the NW across the Gulf Stream by not much. That would have put the old girl
to a pretty severe challenge. I?d rather do a hurricane away from the Stream
than that!

Okay so I have some quotes.  Boat US is the highest and 2 times that of the
lowest.  The lowest wants me to get the surveyor back out and Boat US just
want my money. Is Boat US insurance worth the extra money?   Maybe just for
the convenience factor.  I've been using them for the Oday 22 and, have
never had a claim... Any thoughts? Danny

Danny,

I found Boat US prices to be way high too. At a boat show years ago, I spoke
with Tom Carroll at Total Dollar Insurance (based out of Port Washington, NY
? where I grew up, assuming that I ever really grew up.) They got me a great
policy through Travelers and the claims process was amazingly simple and
easy after some incidents where the boat broke loose in a storm.

Total can be reached at 516.833.1555. Ask for Tom Carroll or Peggy Haze and
please tell him I sent you. I can't imagine a better outfit or a batter
rate.

Never hurts to get a good survey and Boat US may demand one after your
policy is written. 

All the best,

Edd

I had been using Boat US for my previous boat.  Also, they were the insurer
for my recently purchased 29 MKII with the PO.  They sent me a quote for
$13K less in value and at a rate nearly twice what they had been charging
the PO.  Nothing had changed the re boat.  Still moored at the same location
and stored at the same location, sailed in same fashion in the same waters.
Since I had the purchase survey already in hand, I went to State Farm, who
insure my car and condo, and got coverage for $2K over the survey estimate
and at a very reasonable annual rate when compared to what others in my club
are paying for their boats.  All State Farm asked was some minor corrections
in safety areas - that I would have done anyway - that were mentioned in the
survey.

Progressive is about half the price of BoatUS and does not require a survey.
There is an upper limit to what they insure ? maybe 20K ? and they have a
large deductible for named storms, however.

My C&C 27 Mk 1 was washed into the parking lot in Hurricane Katrina and 
was a total loss. At the time, I was insured by State Farm. Under the 
policy, their obligation to remove the wreck was dollar limited and would 
not have been sufficient to pay for the wreck removal had the State of 
Louisiana not removed her almost 1 year later. On the other hand, 3 weeks 
after the storm,  Boat US had a contractor with a crane barge in the 
harbor identifying and removing the wrecks of the boats they insured. I am 
now insured by Boat US as the New Orleans owned harbor required that the 
harbor and city be named as additional insureds under the policy for 
purposes of liability coverage. State Farm flatly would not name the 
harbor on the policy. Progressive's coverage of an additional insured did 
not, in my opinion, fulfill the harbor's requirements.

Moral - Read the policies and know what your are getting for your premium. 
As unpleasant as the idea of  wreck removal is, adequate coverage is 
essential. You get what you pay for.

Sat on Yacht clubs anchorage committee for a few years and had a lot of
problems with those boats insured by Progressive. Went as far as
recommending to membership that they should be very careful in choosing them
for boat insurance.  Boat US seems to do a good job and my experiece with
them when my boat was damaged was very good. Sometimes what looks like a
great deal may end up presenting more problems than the lower premium price
is worth. 
Moondance (C&C 29 MKI) is going to new owners over the weekend. I've
recommended that they go with Boat US for insurance and towing but, as
newbies they think then can save a few bucks. I will try and talk them into
getting reasonable coverage which covers the cost of removal. Our club has
2/3 boats a year which end up going ashore and are costly to remove or
refloat.

Another possible twist...

I know two folks who lost their masts...with very different experiences.
The first unfortunate soul got nothing from the carrier while the second got
a replacement mast with no problems.   Without further detail methinks they
both got what they paid for.  

With that in mind and as I was going offshore I called BoatUS (my carrier)
and asked the what if.   Specifically I was curious if the mast replacement
cost X would they then depreciate it to Y and leave me with the
differential?  Their reply was that as long as the replacement bill does not
exceed insured value of the whole boat they would replace the mast.  

In my opinion the few hundred bucks a year savings (how much I don't know as
I have not priced it around) for lesser coverage is not worth the hassle and
potential problems during a very stressful time.

Sat on Yacht clubs anchorage committee for a few years and had a lot of
problems with those boats insured by Progressive. Went as far as
recommending to membership that they should be very careful in choosing them
for boat insurance.  Boat US seems to do a good job and my experiece with
them when my boat was damaged was very good. Sometimes what looks like a
great deal may end up presenting more problems than the lower premium price
is worth. 
Moondance (C&C 29 MKI) is going to new owners over the weekend. I've
recommended that they go with Boat US for insurance and towing but, as
newbies they think then can save a few bucks. I will try and talk them into
getting reasonable coverage which covers the cost of removal. Our club has
2/3 boats a year which end up going ashore and are costly to remove or
refloat.

My C&C 27 Mk 1 was washed into the
parking lot in Hurricane Katrina and was a total loss. At the time, I was
insured by State Farm. Under the policy, their obligation to remove the
wreck was dollar limited and would not have been sufficient to pay for
the wreck removal had the State of Louisiana not removed her almost 1 year
later. On the other hand, 3 weeks after the storm,  Boat US had a
contractor with a crane barge in the harbor identifying and removing the
wrecks of the boats they insured. I am now insured by Boat US as the New
Orleans owned harbor required that the harbor and city be named as
additional
insureds under the policy for purposes of liability coverage. State Farm
flatly would not name the harbor on the policy. Progressive's coverage
of an additional insured did not, in my opinion, fulfill the harbor's
requirements.

My C&C 25 was wrecked in Hurricane Wilma and beached in a sensitive Florida
crocodile protection area on Key Biscayne. The rangers were hot on my trail,
needless to say. Progressive removed the wreck quickly, even though hundreds
of boats were wrecked all over South Florida,  and had an $8K check (full
amount of coverage) in my hand a few weeks later. 

They couldn?t have been more helpful, a sharp contrast to how I was treated
by my homeowners insurance company. Progressive won my boat business forever
after that.

Progressive is about half the price of BoatUS and does not require a survey.
There is an upper limit to what they insure ? maybe 20K ? and they have a
large deductible for named storms, however.

I had been using Boat US for my previous boat.  Also, they were the insurer
for my recently purchased 29 MKII with the PO.  They sent me a quote for
$13K less in value and at a rate nearly twice what they had been charging
the PO.  Nothing had changed the re boat.  Still moored at the same location
and stored at the same location, sailed in same fashion in the same waters.
Since I had the purchase survey already in hand, I went to State Farm, who
insure my car and condo, and got coverage for $2K over the survey estimate
and at a very reasonable annual rate when compared to what others in my club
are paying for their boats.  All State Farm asked was some minor corrections
in safety areas - that I would have done anyway - that were mentioned in the
survey.

Okay so I have some quotes.  Boat US is the highest and 2 times that of the
lowest.  The lowest wants me to get the surveyor back out and Boat US just
want my money.

Is Boat US insurance worth the extra money?  

Maybe just for the convenience factor.  I've been using them for the Oday 22
and, have never had a claim...

Any thoughts?
