Default Boat insurance in the Gulf States

Molesworth, my Krogen is 21 yrs. old.

I'm about to head S toward Port O'Connor and on to Port Aransas and
Corpus. We were supposed to leave yesterday but the compressor is
going out on my cold plate reefer. Should be fixed this afternoon if
he can get a new one. If not... departing next week. Plan on stopping
at Port O'Connor and taking in some of that good seafood, and maybe a
trip up to Serendipity resort in Palacios. Look for a Krogen 42
"Anastasia III" between next week and the end of the month. We'll be
in Corpus on the 21st. for sure, since I have one crew member that has
to catch a plane out of there that day.

BTW, I think I've set the SOG record for a Krogen at the entrance to
Port O'Conner. Leaving on an outgoing tide, we were up to about 14
knots on a 7 knot boat. I'd sure hate to be trying to come IN with
that kind of outflow!

Hi Keith,

Are you coming down the intercoastal, or going
outside? If you come up to Serendipity, you'll
probably be tied up within a slip or two of us
since we are out on the end by the large transient
slips. Come by and say hi. We will for sure be
there this weekend if you make it down by then.

We'll keep an eye out for Anastasia. She is the
same age as our Irwin 38.

If it turns out you are shorthanded for the trip,
let me know and I might be able to make part of it
with you.

Don W.

Hmmm, this is weird!

Maybe it's because I'm in Louisiana? (Wrong Zip?)

I have tried at least 6 different insurers, with a variation of 'over 10
yrs'. 'over 30/35', 'we have ceased offering cover (no market) in the
Gulf.' to decline coverage.

Oh, well,

As we are off to the Carib in November, I guess we'll be 'self-insured'!

Try these guys: http://www.imiscorp.net/ They're an independent
broker, and look at all kinds of companies. My current policy is with
Markel through IMIS.
