I'm with Progressive. They were the best, by far; Magic Deck Boat is listed as the type of watercraft. About $800.

Thanks for schooling me your right :smile:
I guess what I should have said is....I (as in third party) just received a letter from the insurance agency (second party) that represents the company(first party) that my insurance will be cancelled in 30 days. Sorry about that.

I knew what ya ment. Companies make the rules and agencies have to deliver the (usually) bad news. Sorry about your C notice.

do you have to tell them if you put on a supercharger or blower? is the cut at 500 h.p.?

here is the way i see it, there is really know difference between 450 500 600 horsepower big block non blown except cubic inches and cost.so if you have a motor with a carb that is 600hp and you say it is 500hp and you crash it do you think they are going to pull the boat up rebuild the motor and have it dynoed to find out if you were lying about a 100hp.know if you crash it and they pull it up and it has a blower sitting on it,i think you have some explaing to do even if it wasnt much more hp.

When I insured my boat (through Duane at Alternative) he send an amendment to the application where you had to initial that the boat had less than 500hp and went less than 75mph.
