so a month ago i called skisafe and informed them of my new tower and speaker system. They said "no problem" you're deductible will now be $1k and the premiums will stay the same. sounds okay right! Today i got a letter from them stating, notice of non-renewal for under writing reasons. This sucks, I've never filed a claim or anything. Does anybody have recommendations, i have until June 08.

wow, 540 sounds good for 70k. i'll check'em out. found out ski-safe, which is the boat div for geico is going to stop insuring boats with after market towers. i guess its time to change my home,auto,umbrella and boat ins.

We've had nothing but problems with SkiSafe over the years. We worked closely with their management to make sure that hydrofoils (SkySki & AirChair) would be insured with their policies. They assured us there would be no problems. They even work with us to insure the Fly-ins.
Then we had a large number of people either get dropped because they were riding foils, or get outrageous quotes because they had a $4000 SkySki included in their policy (along with a $60,000.00 boat). Makes me wonder if their such a large company that the right hand has no idea what the left hand is doing.

I use Safeco. Rates are comparable & coverage is a lot better.

Bill, I'll add it to the list (safeco), yeah skisafe left a bad taste, I'm thinking the same thing regarding skisafe & how they lack in being consistent with their policy decisions. I'm sure you know warren buffett owns geico, must look at the losses daily. anyways I just got off the phone with boatus. they want $305yr. so far i have progressive for 280 and boatus for 305.
