Tom,

Welcome to the fleet. I used to be insured through BOAT US and they covered racing in the Bay and I believe in an offshore area up to 30 miles in radius from Mile Rock.

I am now insured with Progressive. They cover racing in all US and Canadian waters up to 50 miles offshore. For the e27, I pay roughly $480/yr with $500k in liability and a $250 deductible.

cheers

Dan

:: Just purchased an express, and sold my Melges 24. I had
:: insurance on the 24 however, the insurance will no
:: longer cover boats longer then 26'. Obvioulsy, there are
:: some insurance groups that will cover boats soley
:: utilized for racing purposes only, but I am having a
:: hard time finding any. Does anyone have insurance on
:: their 27 that specifically covers racing and racing in
:: offshore waters? If you do would you be kind enough to
:: pass on the provider name so I can contact them for a
:: quote?

:: Thanks,

:: Tom
