Re: depressed

some of you guys are really stupid bayliner/force bashers (idiots)
#1 when did it say anywhere in the post that the transom and stringers are rotten? oh it didnt.. that transom is new dumb a**. the boat was really taken good care of by the other owner.the ins company looked at the boat before insuring it and said they have not seen a boat that old in that good condition.and insured the boat for 6000.00. hhmmmm. i really wish people who dont know anything really shouldnt say any thing..i could go on but i dont feel like stooping to a dummys level..and to the others thanks for trying to help.

Ayuh,....

Well,... For 1 thing,... You Asked for Opinions.... And you got Mine......

If you Think that Insurance Companies are So F-in Great at Surveying Boats,...
Maybe you should be posting at an Insurance Forum.......

A Top Quality Transom, with No Rot, That's been Rebuilt, Properly,......
Doesn't "Just Fail"........

While I'm sure there are Exceptions,.....
Generally speaking,... A Bilgeliner that's over 20 years old,....Is a Rotten pile of Junk.....
Reelfishin gave the Reasons Why....

If the Truth Hurts,..... Don't ask the Question......

Re: depressed

Aren't insurance premiums based on the estimated value of the boat? You insurance co may have taken you for a bit of a ride by increasing the estimated value of the boat which resulted in you paying higher premiums. In good condition, you may get $1500 to $2000, but definitely not $6k.

Have a great day,

Rob.
