I recently purchased a 1977 California 34ldc. It is in SoCal. I had no problem getting boat insurance through Progressive. No survey. No medical exam (I’m 76). They provided $500k of liability that the Marina required, and named the Marina as additional insured.
Currently in the process of buying a 1979 Californian 34LRC. Always loved the look of Trawlers, the walk around deck making it easy to chase fish. Home port will be Channel Islands marina.
