    I'd get a 250, Unless you want to break 100 mph.

    Weird, I'm an insurance agent here in MA and we write with Foremost and they declined due to speed. Wonder if they have specialty program that we're not part of. Same with Travelers...declined due to speed however through their specialty program i was able to have Travelers insure it.

    Never forget that if you use a 19P prop, It's much slower.

    They covered my 21SST with a 300R and I'm still with them on my Allison 21XB / 300R.

    Todd, I have to ask....did your agent of Foremost ask for a top speed?

    If I were to do it over again, there'd be a 300R hanging off the back of mine.

    Different Todd, but when I first had mine insured, it was with Allstate, but when I changed they just asked how much I wanted it insured for and how fast I normally went

    I don't recall that they did ask for a top speed. Don't remember for sure.

    My car goes over 100 but they insured it without asking me how fast it would go. Insurance is a joke (unless you need it) but you probably should have it because of all the incompetent *******s driving both boats and cars.

    Being as I have a boat that is capable of 100mph. I don't know just how to take that comment. I can say that if you are incompetent you'd better not try to drive one over 100mph. lol
