I know this has been a topic before but I didn't pay any attention before, I need insurance. My boat will be done in one week and I didn't think getting insurance would be a problem but I started to call around and no one will insur tunnel hulls, help! My boat is a DCB Mach 26, I've tryed all the big names AAA,Progressive,State Farm. Iam in a panic, also if it isn't to much trouble maybe a phone number. Thanks for any help you can give me.

I don't have a DCB tunnel but, but you should call "Worldwide Marine Underwriters. That is who we have our boat insured with and we have the maximum coverage available. They also have certain perks that some, if not most, other insurance companies don't offer or disclose. Give them a call, they are based out of Michigan.
(800) 339-1235

We have an HTM SR24 and had no problem with a company called LeisureCraft in Santa Ana, CA. They insure tunnels/cats . . . speed and motor size increase the $$$ of your policy. Full coverage, liability, and full replacement value and about $700.00 less than our previous insurance company Markel Ins. Call this number and ask for Richard Senna 800-733-5242. Good Luck

BigBoy78, 1st Darla at DCB is a great resouce for a list of INS. sales people. I use BUZZ from PMI in Fla. He is on top of the Performance boat market 954 583 5558. He will get it done for you. ask him about a lay up period if you don't use all yr long. Its cheaper yet
