I mostly agree with Roger on this, but I've seen several very good FC
boats in the New Zealand, Oz, Coral Sea area. So, there are some
exceptions to the rule that stone boats are unwanted. Still, even
with a good one with a good survey insurance will be hard to come by.
Insurance companies like to insure things that they can understand
statistically. In practice that means that if it isn't a grp
production monohull it's going to be a challenge to get coverage at
reasonable prices.
