Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
I guess they must have updated the application software. I had been covered for 3 years when they realized that Imzadi, my 38, was too big for their underwriting standards. I do admit that while I was covered, I was occasionally amused by the promotional messages that lauded how big a benefit it was that they covered road service on the trailer for my boat. After Progressive didn’t renew my policy a local agent placed me with Victoria, the marine insurance subsidiary of Nationwide. Good experience until they stopped insuring boats in North Carolina.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
The only bad thing I have heard about Progressive was from someone hit by a freighter. The freighter didn’t hang around long, not like it hurt THEM very much, and Progressive was apparently clueless about tracking down their agent and getting paid by their insurance. Totally the freighter’s fault too, they got off course and hit some ANCHORED boats.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
I can say that we were treated wonderfully by AutoOwners with our dismasting experience on Corsair (Redwing 35, C 35-1). We originally went with AutoOwners in 1996 when we purchased Corsair because no other insurance company wanted to insure a 1970 hull. AutoOwners responded quickly, the agent was easy to work with and after the quote for full repair exceeded the agreed hull value they cut us a check and let us know the boat was still ours to repair or dispose. We chose to dispose. Our agreed to value payout was basically enough to buy our newer C 35-3. We insured our C 35-3 with Boat US since that was where she was already insured. When our Redwing policy was up for renewal, our insurance company contacted us and I told them I assumed they were done with us. They said definitely not and we changed our policy for the C 35-3 over to AutoOwners. There was no discussions with them over depreciation on the dismasting quote. The would have covered everything up to the agreed to hull value. AutoOwners has made me a convert. I have dealt with them for two house claims and the dismasting and they have been easy to work with (two different agents, one was my deceased Mother's house).

The agreed value is for a total loss. When they paid for repairs on my 1981 C 40 this past summer, I had to pay for 80% of any fitting or other part of the hull, AFTER the deductible. Labor is not depreciated. But… In my case, BoatUS/Geico sent adjusters who had no experience or knowledge of sailboats. The adjusters gave a ridiculously low estimate of time required to make repairs, and used labor rates that were less than half the prevailing rates in the NE US. I then had to have every single charge over and above the fictional estimate approved, which took weeks. And I had to pay for storage while they were approving the new charges. They also made several accounting errors in calculating how much to reimburse me, and it took several weeks to explain the errors to them and have them corrected. The total payout in the end was nearly ten times what they had first determined. I went with them because last winter I sailed to the Bahamas, and their policy with additional Bahamas coverage was not very expensive. But given that they do have any restrictions on what season one sails in the Bahamas, I expect their rates are going to go up dramatically. (Funny how insurance companies adjust premia to reflect past losses, rather than pricing risk as they are supposed to). I am extremely unhappy with BoatUS/Geico.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
I submitted a claim under a BoatUS CNA policy years ago, and it was handled satisfactorily and professionally. In stark contrast, I had a hard time getting a straight answer from GEICO about the depreciation issue (layers of bureaucracy). I am not surprised that their claims process is frustrating.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
My experience with BOATUS was stellar years ago. I hit a log and bent the prop shaft. They didn’t even send an adjuster, just had the yard fax them an estimate and they paid it no question. I don’t even think I had a deductible because I had paid to get hauled anyway for painting. There was no depreciation at all. How does a prop shaft and prop “depreciate” anyway? They are good for decades and then you hit something and they are no longer. It is a real shame BOATUS went down the drain.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
I can absolutely confirm that BoatUS/Geico depreciates to 20 percent on repairs, on a policy that has an agreed value. The agreed value is for a total loss. When they paid for repairs on my 1981 C 40 this past summer, I had to pay for 80% of any fitting or other part of the hull, AFTER the deductible. Labor is not depreciated. But. In my case, BoatUS/Geico sent adjusters who had no experience or knowledge of sailboats. The adjusters gave a ridiculously low estimate of time required to make repairs, and used labor rates that were less than half the prevailing rates in the NE US. I then had to have every single charge over and above the fictional estimate approved, which took weeks. And I had to pay for storage while they were approving the new charges. They also made several accounting errors in calculating how much to reimburse me, and it took several weeks to explain the errors to them and have them corrected. The total payout in the end was nearly ten times what they had first determined. I went with them because last winter I sailed to the Bahamas, and their policy with additional Bahamas coverage was not very expensive. But given that they do have any restrictions on what season one sails in the Bahamas, I expect their rates are going to go up dramatically. (Funny how insurance companies adjust premia to reflect past losses, rather than pricing risk as they are supposed to). I am extremely unhappy with BoatUS/Geico. I'd welcome referrals to companies that will insure a boat built in 1981 for offshore sailing, or referrals to brokers that can find good underwriters.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
Bruce, Just an FYI, the ISO for watercraft is WT 00 01. Most companies either follow the ISO because they have been tested in court for the language used, or because the ISO has already been approved by the state so they don't have to get their own policy approved. There are many companies that do use their own policies as you said, but they are based on the ISO with some changes to the language as they try to exclude something that the base policy doesn't. Typically, that language is tested in court pretty quickly and if they lose, they tend to revert their language back to the original base policy. The mid-west company I worked for for a few years went that route. They managed to win a few court cases so some of their language became standardized among other 'write your own' carriers. There is one other policy standard that exists that I forgot about until now. Lloyd's of London. They write a policy that uses some of the language that I have seen other's mention in this string that you don't find in ISO forms. Progressive, Heritage and others resell Lloyd's whenever they get a policy that doesn't fall into their normal book of business (types of policies they specialize in). I've not dealt with a lot of Lloyd's policies, but they are definitely different. If anyone on this list has a Lloyd's policy, I highly recommend the coverage review I mentioned earlier. Very highly.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated
I agree with everything James said except for the bit about ISO forms. Yes, ISO forms are pretty standard for Homeowners, Renters, and even Commercial General Liability. For boats, however, I have not seen the standard ISO forms, meaning that each carrier's policy may differ, even substantially. That means that one should not rely on having standard policy language that is only altered by endorsements.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated coverage
Be careful to understand your insurance policy. Lots of terms like “replacement value” or “agreed value” or “new for old” have different definitions. See the definitions section of your policy. Sometimes the “agreed value” provision applies only in the case of a total loss while a “depreciated value” provision is applied in case of a partial loss. If you purchase your insurance from a “marine” broker or even a “marine” agent you should be able to get straight answers about how claims will be handled but if you are buying your insurance from the same person you are buying your home owners or auto coverage you may find the broker/agent less knowledgeable about your yacht/boat policy because it’s a very different product. And remember that a “broker” works for you while an “agent” works for the insurance company. Property/casualty insurances are regulated by your state’s insurance commissioner while a true “ marine” policy falls under federal jurisdiction. A lower price often equates to less coverage. I suggest you be very careful here. Just my opinion. Dave.

Re: Stus-List Boat insurance...reimbursement vs. depreciated coverage...
After this discussion emerged on this list a year or two ago, I contacted GEICO (which had become the Boat US insurer) and asked whether, if I were dismasted, the depreciation would apply. They looked into it and replied yes. As I recall, there was a 20% floor. In other words, if I got dismasted, I would have to pay 80% of the replacement cost. I have a 42 foot boat with a 60 foot mast. I was on the phone to Travelers that day.

Speak to a supervisor. There should be no depreciation for those parts.
