I've read a few articles that because these boats are priced so high, people are getting a 20 year loan for them and then filing an insurance claim after 5-6 years and buying a new one causing insurance to be higher than normal as well? any FL residents seeing this effect?

Filing an insurance claim for what?

[dombern34]

I'm assuming to receive insurance money for the balance of the loan and then repeating step 1 and 2. which is driving insurance rates up.. don't quote me on this lol that's why I was asking. can't believe everything you read on the internet so was curious.

SK? Is that 1.5k per foot unpowered? I wasn't even thinking about that earlier

Depends on the builder and model. Some of the entry-level builders would come in at the lower $1.5K mark with power while others are going to be double and triple that or more. And as you discovered, the pre-owned market for quality builds is strong.

Ever watch the news during a hurricane and wonder why that $300,000 boat is still tied up to the dock?

Or why someone left their car in an area that was for sure going to flood during a storm?
