Boatbuilding insurance

[RayThackeray]

Having just got through a conversation with Allstate who asked me for the name of the manufacturer and model of boat, and having been turned down because my custom designed trawler isn't in their "list", I thought I'd look through this and other online resources. I did a search of all posts and the word "insurance" appears in 907 of them and looking through a few dozen I gave up on that. Then I tried searching for the term just in the Title, that returned a few threads that were not very informative.

So here we are, my sum total of knowledge on the topic so far:

One poster said that "Panteneous" had covered them, no details. I'm guessing that actually meant http://www.pantaenius.us - I'll be calling them to see what they can do and will post the results of the conversation. BTW I've heard in the past that they are the best for cruiser's insurance, including medical, especially outside the USA.

That's it!

Does anyone know of an insurer in the USA who could help? I'm personally looking for liability, theft and damage insurance.

Thanks,

Ray
