Whether it is a cat or a V-Hull the break off point seems to be 15 years, unless you all ready have a policy with them, or it appears to be an average speed boat.

If I bought a newer cat that didn't go over 115, insurance would be between 3-3.5%. But that is over 100K for the boat. But the overall premium is still lower.

I can't figure it out except for the salvage value of what is left after it sinks. Whatever you run over is still going to be just as fu(ked up, so it can't have anything to do with the liability.

My Magnum insurance went up to $2200, and that boat isn't worth 30K when it is complete. That is a 7% premium. WTF.

3 engines is fine. I only know one triple engine boat that always has problems.

But at least you can still outrun Wstultz home on 2.

My little dingy was out on the water this Saturday, although it had some minor technical difficulties. I must have missed you guys running your boats.

I'd rather make it home slow than make it home fast on two with a $10000 bill headed my way.

Nope, they came to the barn on Sunday for dinner.
