Insurance carriers

Having been dropped by Travelers we are receiving quotes for coverage for East Coast US and Caribbean (not hurricane season). Age is apparently a factor in rates and Aletes is a 1998 hull. Received quote from IRSUS Inc./Aspen American Insurance Company for $4797 on hull value of $225,000 with 5% deductible. Does anyone have experience with this company? Geico quote was $5808 with 4% deductible. Thoughts? Mike Ondra Aletes SM#240 Chesapeake Bay

Mike,
I am assuming you are USA flagged?
I spent a lot of time on insurance after Pantaenius USA changed their Caribbean policy requirements to a point where it was just about impossible to comply.
If you are not planning on being anywhere near the Caribe during the season, try talking to Scott:
Scott Stusek | Vice President
PANTAENIUS America Ltd. 500 Mamaroneck Avenue |Harrison, NY 10528 | United States of America Tel. 443-569-7995 | Fax. 443-569-7996 | Cell 914-217-7991 sstusek@pantaenius.com | www.pantaenius.us
Another option that may work for you is an awesome company called Novamar. It is an A-Rated insurance company with a really easy to understand policy. The contact is Chris. He is an independent agency who writes a lot of policies for Novamar.
Chris Boome Insurance Agency LIC# 0A99058 751 Laurel Street #216 San Carlos, CA 94070 O: 650-517-3160 C: 650-464-0728 E-mail: chris@...
Both of the companies above will offer a stated value / declared value policies.
With best regards,

I recently met a 2001 SM owner who had a near lightning strike that killed most of the electronics on board. His broker is Hanham Insurance Agency. Not sure of the brokers name but the mobile number is 843.276.1608; I think the underwriter is Yacht Insurers. He has been pleased with the service he has received including the funding of the repairs which are ongoing currently. hanhaminsurance.com
