Looking for quality insurance at the best price.

Can you use USAA? They beat Boat US by about 15% for me.

The only problem with Progressive, that I've seen anyway, is that if
your boat in on a trailer and you have fiberglass repairs, don't
expect it to be fixed by a marina or boat dealer. Their concept is
that fiberglass is fiberglass and an auto body shop is as good as a
dealer and cheaper to boot.

Other than that, they seem pretty good.

Later,

Tom

Ask your agent about adding a boat/trailer rider to your homeowner's policy.
That's what we did- it costs $107 per year.

This is about the cheapest insurance you can get and works fine until you
start thinking about your potential liabilities. For example, a rider on
your homeowner's policy is not going to cover oil or gas spills. If you
have a major accident, the boat sinks and leaks gas, oil or diesel, the
government will own your house.

A good marine insurance policy is not that more expensive and typically has
at least 500k protection for oil spills.
