Boat insurance?

[jvitiel]

I have had BoatUS insurance for the over 25 years. I finally needed it for a short tow a few years back and the claims process was quick and painless. I can't recall who their carrier was at the time but BoatUS switched over to Geico last year. This year I had a claim on a damaged bimini top. What a PIA! Slow to process, horrible communications skills and tons of paperwork. I'm thinking about changing to a different carrier as I can just imagine the headache it would have been if it was a more substantial claim.

When searching for a policy, price is important of course but after my recent experience the quality of their claims handling is even more important IMO. If anyone can recommend anyone other than BoatUS/Geico for good claims handling, I'm all ears..

Skook - have you filed a claim with Farmers recently with good results?
