    Default Insurance Increase?

    I just renewed my boat insurance and my annual premium increased over 10%!!! What's the deal, was some law passed making boat insurance more expensive? Is this a result of some Obamacare initiative?

    I just got new insurance a couple weeks ago. Got a better deal actually but I'm not sure how good my rate was. I believe this one was under 500, maybe, can't quite remember.

    Time to go shopping for insurance. Safeco priced me out of their market a few years back and saved $900 a year for all my stuff. Sometimes they do it more subtly until years latter when you compare insurance.

    I just had my boat insurance go down this year. Even my deductible went away, with disappearing deductible.

    Default Insurance Increase?

    Hmmmm I went from 463 a year to 519 and I'm with boatUS. I'll give them a call later today if I remember. I just renewed last night due to it expiring but I can cancel and sign on with someone else at any time right?

    I'm paying $500 / year right now, but it's time to renew. Funny this came up, because I put all my insurance papers in my work bag today so that I can go through it and make some phone calls.

    I just got off the phone with my current insurance company (Boater's Insurance Agency) and Ski Safe.
    My current coverage is increasing to $598 for the year. I have a $500 deductible and $100k liability coverage.
    I can get the same coverage through Ski Safe for $400 per year. For $425, I can get the disappearing deductible which means it decreases every year I don't have a claim and liability is increased to $300k.

    I think this is a no brainer, I'll be making a switch. I'm going to call around and get a few more quotes too. Anyone have any suggestions for other companies?

    progressive and i'm right around $430 for coverage. don't know the specifics, but it's what the bank demanded and they said they require a lot more than the basic state limits.. It did jump around $125 dropping the supra and adding a new boat.

    Definitely price Progressive, Boat US and I think Allstate is getting aggressive in marketing boat coverage-- one of the big ones anyway-- think it was Allstate. Mine went up about $30 so I didn't shop it this year. We should all find a way to get our boat insurance from one place-- maybe Dusty could help?
