Insurance Surprise.

We're approaching JD's 7th Birthday (well, we consider her delivery day her birthday, don't get too technical about this.) We took delivery of her on Sunday June 5th. 2005.

Since then we have trailed JD well over a thousand miles of highway, and sailed her hundreds of miles around Florida. All the time we have been insured by Boat US and never made a claim (even after Wilma when a burning branch blew off a nearby tree and landed temporarily on the boat leaving the equivalent of a cigarette burn. I would have to point it out in order for you to be aware of it.)

JD has spent a lot of time on her trailer, other boats spend a lot of time on their mooring or at their slips. We consider JD to be in her slip when she is on the trailer parked at the side of the house.

Turns out, that Boat US starts to discount the insurance premium after years of no claims and in our case, we just had a reduction of Annual Premium from $1,100 to $400! Whooo Hoooo!
