    I would think you will be fully covered by Progressive without any problems. I had a hail claim on both my vehicles, and there were no questions asked whatsoever. Very good service.

     

     

    You're right...Progressive was amazing!!. They authorized a complete new paint job since the Caribbean Blue is so hard to match. I can't speak highly enough about them.

    Please watch video.

     

    This video is in reference to the water discharge legislation pending in Congress.

    Simply put, a law that exempted recreational boaters from getting a permit to discharge water overboard is about to expire.

    Discharges include simple engine cooling water, gray water discharge, bilge water or even rain water.

    The permits are estimated to cost $800 to a few thousand per season.

     

    If you agree, and I don't know how you couldn't, please click on the "Click here to send a letter to Congress" and send a letter.

    It couldn't be easier.

    And please, send to all your boating friends.

     

    Thanks.

    My apologies to the webmaster if this is something you do not want on the forum board but none of my

    friends are aware of this legislation.

     

     

     

    More government trash to run our lives. These idiots just can't help themselves unless a new tax proposal is in place at EVERY turn, for ANY reason. :angry: Darn right I signed it! Thanks for the link.

    I get an emergency call today from the marina. It seems that somehow, my boat ended up sliding off the lift, into the water, and was located on the other side of Lake Lewisville. Hats off to Pier 121 (upon finding it with no one aboard ) for towing it back and storing in in an adjacent slip.

     

    As a result of this "Ghost Ship," there's now SEVERE exterior damage to both sides of the boat, including huge gashes in the gelcoat as well as ripped pin striping. The whole vessel may need repainting and I haven't even been able to look at the sterndrive (no lift in the temporary slip) for damage in the event it scraped the bottom. My fear is that someone pulled the rings from the lift causing it to fail.

    I had the boat tied to the dock as well....ropes were loosened or had become loose, and therefore, rendered themselves useless (sorry, no boat pics yet).

     

    Here's my concern, and this is where I need your help:I'm insured with Progressive and have never had a claim. Has anyone worked with them before, and is this type of thing covered?? I read the policy and it seems as though I'll be fine, but I'm sickened to think that this happened. Any thoughts before I call the agent when he opens? :(
