22 cat boat insurance?? Who does it??

[75spectra]

Looking for insurance for a 2000 Eliminator 22 Daytona with a smallblock. Who does it at a reasonable cost?

[Mrs. Restless22]

AAA can most likely do it, for a great price!
Where are you located?

[565edge]

I did mine with state farm.$350 a year.1995 22' daytona with a big block.

I'm in ohio and just purchased this boat. Have not taken delivery yet as the whole insurance thing is making me change my mind! All the companys so far call it a "race boat" and wont touch it! I have sold bass boats that are faster!!! Whats up with that?

AAA does not insure high performance boats. I have everything I own with them and they still will not touch the boat.
If you have State Farm be careful because they do not insure high performance boats either. I had a policy through them and once they found out what it was they insured they cancelled me. This has happened to others on here as well by State Farm.
Bottom line is if the price seems to good to be true it is. :rolleyes:
There are only a few companies out there that will insure cats and the above that RR reffered you to is one of them. Good Luck. :cool:

State Farm did the same thing to me and I have a stock 502. Try Marty Ragman at Charter Lakes. 714.969.2418. He hooked me up for my 25 Daytona.

Its actually Marty Reichman and he is great. Does a lot of Eliminator's insurance on cats. He represents Markel.

everyone, please:
Tell your f-ing good-for-nothing insurance company its an all or nothing deal. If they don't insure your boat then they will get none of your business, especially the lucrative homeowners policy. Be very clear of this when you are asking for a quote.
I told State farm to F-off when they said they wouldn't insure my boat. I moved both cars, home, RV, boat to the same insurance co.
State Farm lost ALL my business and they were warned.
the more of us that stand up to the insurance company B.S. the sooner they will start insuring our boats again.
they make plenty of money on our homeowners policies, even if the boat is a losing proposition for them, tough shit. Tell them to take one for the team.

Thanks for the correction. I guess I should have checked my outlook contact to get the name right. Oh well.
DJ, Did you make it to the Scope run? I didn't get a chance to run down there. I was really hoping to make it but my friends were moving and I promised I would help.

[75spectra]

Yeh what he said!
No really the whole thing is bringing me down! Have the boat bought and now the insurance thing is pissing me off! Progressive took all the info untill I said "Daytona" and that was it! Sorry we dont insure race boats!? What the F*#K!! But they will insure 90 mph "bass boats" anybody seen a fish that swims 90? This Daytona will only run 74 on smallblock power. I am going to contact the companys that you guys have mentioned and see what happens.

[STVBOY]

State farm does not ins tunnels watch out if you have them or don't ever file a claim!!

[www.stvowners.com]

Check and see if Erie Insurance out of PA writes polices in OH. That's who I insure my STV with.

[Jrocket]

Your problem is going to be the word "tunnel" and then the length will be the end to it all.You really only have about 3 places that will actually give you legit insurance.You really need to watch what you sign up for,and if you cheat the numbers or facts.Be prepared to lose it all if you need to ever file a claim.They can drop you and deny your claim over the littlest thing.Be honest up front and pay the money.

No we did not make it, hope to next year! We are bringing the boat home next week however to make a Catalina run in late September.
