It had to happen!

[Captain Chaos]

It was somewhat inevitable that the day would come I’d have to ask a sensible question.

The time has finally come for me to insure the phantom (now that doesn’t mean its ready yet!!!), I’ve always used Carters and have (I think) 5 years no claims with them.

However judging by the price of the renewal that’s just come through for the Fletcher, I reckon the phantom’s gonna be astronomical!!

I know all this has been discussed before, but I would be really interested to know where all you mentalists (that’s you burty, roofer, taz, yorkie, cye etc) get yours insured?

Thanks in advance

Insurance whats that! silversurfer goes greenlight £150 i think

 

[Burty]

Carters £500 including ski racing cover

 

[Captain Chaos]

thats a fair sum burty......have you been hazey with some of the facts such as speed & where its kept?

 

[Burty]

nope told them truth about where it is kept and asked an expert for top speed and quoted what he said.

 

[Captain Chaos]

cool

The sharpe was always insured with carters, far and away the cheapest for me. The dRunken fUmble was with porthcawl.

 

[Matt]

Oh, should add with the sharpe I was a member of a BWSA affiliated club which helped the insurance cost.

It does depend greatly on the 'design max speed' and if any changes to 'standard' have been made.

For the same insurance value I have been quoted 4 times the quote for the faster boat.

 

[Silversurfer]

We have the phantom 16 and 20 insured with http://www.euromarine-ltd.com £150 all in
As long as the boat does NOT have a top speed inexcess of 70mph.

euromarine quoted me about 500 quid, which compares pretty well

 

[Cyco]

Mine cost me £1454 for ski racing

£500 dosen't sound to bad to me.
