    Required Insurance at PNW marinas

    Indeed they are. The RBAW information is very vague vs the information about the actual increase of liability coverage (and the reasoning behind the change)...

    Required Insurance at PNW marinas

    Interesting how this is popping up again…the last time it did, the underwriter at Red Shield Insurance took it upon himself to call all the marinas in Southern BC and their take was: BC insurance carriers do not have the required standalone Oil Pollution Act coverage as US policies do...

    Insurance

    Not quite muerto yet, y'all! As Dave mentioned, I've been extremely over the last 2 years, and I want to apologize for not being of better service to the forum. The madness of COVID and the resultant fluctutions in my area of the marine industry have largely subsided, and life is (somewhat)...

    Generator woes- low compression across all cylinders

    The patient- a KiloPak 12kW genset powered by an Isuzu 3LD1 3 cylinder diesel engine. 450 hours run time. All was working well on our last summer outing, with zero indications of trouble.

    Total Loss Options

    PNW Surveyors

    Ron Thompson at Currents Marine surveys, Cale Mathers ar Mathers Marine surveys come to mind. Lynne Reister at Lodestar Marine is another excellent recommendation- just make sure you impress upon her that you need your survey report is a very timely manner.

    Total Loss Options

    I respectfully disagree on your premise regarding insurance (see above in red). The insurance contract will settle the total loss claim per the contract as I noted above (Agreed Value vs Actual Cash Value). It's really that simple. No insuring company looks for ways to not pay a claim- that...

    Replacing a Paragon Sr Fresh Water System

    I went with a Headhunter Mach 5 pump about 5 years ago- excellent pressure and silent.

    Total Loss Options

    Questions: Who is your carrier? Why were parts ordered prior to any contact with your insurer? If your policy is Agreed Value coverage, your settlement will be the value shown on your declarations page. If Actual Cash Value, you’ll negotiate the value at time of loss. The best option is to...

    U.S. resident getting Insurance in Canada

    I’ll assume you have a US flagged/registered vessel. The challenge I’m having in boating coverage for the OP is the vessel will remain BC registered (per the buyer). I recommended he contact a marine escrow company in Anacortes to discuss the ramifications.
