I insure an 18' ski boat for $10,000, and it costs me around $300 / year
through Progressive. It's been awhile since I signed up with the policy,
but I believe I'm paying a higher premium due to engine size (427).

I have lurked on this newsgroup for quite a while and I am about to get
my first boat, a Swee****er 20 foot pontoon. I ordered it and will take
delivery in about a week or so. My family and I are extremely excited!

I have some questions about insurance though. How much insurance should
I carry on a new boat like this? How much do you guys pay annually for
your insurance and who is it with? I just got a quote back from BoatUS
and it was $1000.00 per year! That seems extremely high to me. A
Progressive Direct came back at $100 per year. That seems a bit low.

By the way, I have taken the USCGA/USPS boating safety course so
that should save me a little.

Thanks for your help!

USAA is charging me $327/year for my 21' Proline, valued at $26.5K. That reminds
me, I need to call them and depreciate that sucker. This is for loss/damage and
$300000 liability.

Ditto on USAA. I've got a 2005 Key West CC and it's under $200/year. Of
course, with 2 cars a motorcycle, an RV, and a boat I should qualify for
some kind of fleet discount!
