Hi All,
This pertains to Canadian boats (BC coastal waters).
My wife and I are considering a switch to a Trawler style boat now that the kids are grown (32 LOA, fiberglass hull, current seaworthy Survey). There seems to be a threshold at 30 years of age where some insurance companies will not even look at the boat for insurance yet I see lots of older boats in marinas (where in BC you typically require $2M and sometimes $3M in liability just to get moorage).
So my question is: are older boats out or, if not, who is insuring these older boats?
Thanks for any input you may have.
Chris
