My C&C 25 was wrecked in a hurricane on Key Biscayne.
Progressive paid up promptly, allowed me to remove anything I wanted from the
boat and salvaged the wreckage, which had angered federal park rangers because
it washed up in a federally protected area for Florida crocodiles.
On the basis of performance, Progressive is great. However, its premiums have
climbed considerably in the last few years.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Boat Insurance
To say this thread has been enlightening is a bit of an understatement. I just
renewed my ins. 3 months ago so am not in the market until later this year –
seriously doubt would get a return of premium at this point.
When I was originally looking for boat insurance one of the prime
considerations was how the company handled claims; the phrase “you get what you
pay for” was mentioned more than once. Does anyone have actual claim
experience with any of these companies which are quoting substantially lower
premiums than Boat US? That would include a claim with Geico now that they
have taken over the Boat US business? I had a claim 6-7 years ago with the
predecessor to Geico and the process was very smooth and fair.

Yes. 2017 BoatUS premium (now GEICO) for $1040; GEICO online quote for
substantially the same policy $523. I spoke with a GEICO rep about this today,
and she is discussing the matter with her supervisor and an underwriter, and
said she would get back to me today. Also, my years of experience did not
match between my online quote app (which reflected more years) and my policy,
so I wonder if that type of information remains static in their system based on
the original application.
