For the average boater, it's too much.

That's just plain stupid. For the piddling amount it costs it's well
worth
the added coverage. This is IN ADDITION to the coverage you might
already
possess on your existing policy.

You assume that I don't carry liability - I do.

With the logic you use that seems prudent.

You might want to take the same approach. This is a discussion not
a
competition.

With you it'd be a race... to the bottom.

Whatever Bill.

Over-insuring ANYTHING is just giving money to the insurance company!


Speaking of which, here's a question that'll win you some money if you're
ever on Jeopardy.

During his time with the Spencer Davis Group and Traffic, Steve Winwood
was
the first person to insure what?


I want to say fingers, but that wouldn't be right because others long
before Winwood insured their fingers - Duke Ellington comes to mind
immediately.

How about against loss of brain cells?

That could explain a lot. :)


Thanks for playing. Wrong answer, but we hope you enjoy the case of Mrs
Pauls Fish Sticks we have waiting for you at the door!

His feet, with Lloyd's of London. He apparently thought nobody could
reproduce the bass pedal parts he played, if he were injured, and it would
spell the end of the world if there was no insurance.
