:: 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.

:: :: 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
