Boat insurance

[Greg]

This old nut is creating problems again.
Can anyone recommend an insurance company that doesn't want a professional assessment, marine survey, etc?

Please.....not this again

The only time I have been asked for a survey was when I mentioned it had been "restored" so watch what you say

[Greg]

Hear what you say Al. What I did ask for was for the insurance value to be increased.

I could get insurance on Nirvana while it was stored pending restoration but during the resto they won't insure it. When restored I need a survey to get insurance again. I'm with Nautilus Marine. No survey required for Turbo Fire....

[Greg]

This is for Nova Bob. It was insured under Nautilus for storage/restoration. Now that I want to increase the cover, they (Nautilus) want me to get a written valuation. Just wondering who does those. Probably have to have a survey done to get an valuation.

Aren't "we" the experts on these types of boats? I went through this before as well, and It seems silly to ask someone who knows little about our particular craft for an opinion on value

[Greg]

Loaded question, this one. Were we approached some time ago to be evaluators/valuators of these types of boats?

[Bob Vic]

Maybe Nankervis could do the report? But I agree with Raymondo.... the real experts are our members.
