I do realize that when you seek something online there is ALWAYS some kind of fine print you have to agree to in order to get what you are seeking and to me that is just the most frustrating part of the WWW.
But that's why the all-time best source of information about anything in the world is still free.

You are correct! I believe there are entities out there that are trying to change that fact...so enjoy while we can!

Default Progressive

I have Progressive for Boat and Motorcycle. They have paid without problem on MC damage. Policy for boat is $288.00.

BTW the way to avoid all the email junk when policy shopping is to avoid sites that are not directly related to the insurance company you are shopping.

I was directly involved with the companies in question so not sure how to avoid spam under these circumstances.
It's the same no matter what you are inquiring about online...my info is always shared with the spammers.
If you don't think companies like Progressive and Geico don't sell your email address you are probably, on the naive side (respectfully speaking)

I use progressive some 2 cars, boat, and home. No issues with them and they saved me some cash when I switched to them.

I have all my stuff with Allstate.... $376!

Give Chelsea Gaudet a call over in Tilton! She does a great job and has pretty competitive rates. 603.729.1170

I will probably go with SkiSafe as they are the only ones to contact me directly with a name and email on the other end.
Their quote is quite, inexpensive at $147 for a year but I'm only insuring a 19 foot bow rider.

Geico. Best rate for me.

Boat insurance is one of the last things that are relatively cheap these days. Everyone seems surprised when they get a quote.
