Trojan Boat Forum

Who do you insure your trojan through? I have a 79 36' and i was wondering if i needed to add it to my homeowners policy, auto policy or would need a new specific policy for the boat? Id also like to know what you guys are paying monthly.

thanks.

I have a '79 36' Tri-cabin and it is insured with State Farm along with all of my other policies. I am not sure but I think I am paying around $400/year with a total replacement value of $45,000.00

Try Hagerty Insurance. They do classic boats, even tupperware. hagerty.com

Agreed Value $45,000
Boating Liability $500,000
Fuel and Other Spill Liability $800,000
Medical Payments/ person each accident $1,000
Personal Effects $3,000
Uninsured Boater $500,000

If you get insurance through a company not specializing in boat insurance make sure what your coverage is. Make sure you are covered for fuel spills.

Mine around 850.00 with nationwide Rates vary a lot due to where your at
if I was in Fla it would be 3 times that . inland it would be half . I am dealing with a claim right now I will let you know how the do.

Do you know if your insurance covers hurricane damage? (yep, I live in Sunny FL!)

73 F36
Declared Value $40K
American Family
$1MM liability umbrella
$480/yr
In MN, so inland of course and its only in the water 6 mo and used about 5 of those. Perhaps that explains the rates being lower than FL...

my neighbor has a 30' pontoon boat with a full enclosed house on it, A/C head the works.... Three weeks ago he backed out off his lift and the middle pontoon that the outboard attaches to ripped off the deck and it and the engine went in the salt. The cause was internal galvanized bolts against aluminum angle brackets caused galvanic corrosion. PROGRESSIVE denied hiis claim saying it was a maintanance issue, even though the bolts are only visible if the wooden dekcing was removed (or the motor falls off, as we discovered.) Read the fine print on your policy. I keep my 33 on a lift at my house, home owners made me sign a no coverage adendum for it and a lot of insurance companies will not cover if it is hurricane related.

I am covered for hurricane damage and 12 months use

How does that thing do on fuel economy with the cummins engines? My 79 F36 has twin carburated marine power 454's, i think there 1990 models. havent had in the water yet, but i dont think it will be very good on fuel.

I tried boat US today for my 10 meter sedan. They can only give liability since I do not have it insured now. After paying $430/ year for 12 months then they can offer hull protection (after I pay for a full appraisal for value) for $1580/year Florida
