Just bought a new bass boat and need to call around and get rates. Does boat insurance cover the trailer too? For example, if you're driving down the road and something happens to the trailer (axle or leaf spring breaks, etc)? Never had boat insurance so just curious.

My recent experience was not pleasant with WWM. It's only $7.00 but I live on principals and I pay my premium for the year in one lump sum and have for the past few years with WWM. So I do not get invoices in the mail. Lunch money or price gouging not my game bang

Bass&More,

I just wanted to follow up on the additional billing for the policy. It was actually due to the change in year of the boat. When we first did the quote, we were told the boat was a 2006. The boat id# says it is a 2005. When the correction was made, it added to the premium.

I just wanted to make sure you received the information. I did email you on 4/29 and phoned and left a message for you on 5/3/16.

You can contact us to make the payment for you over the phone or you can contact Foremost.

Thank you.

Laurie,

Is this a recurring charge ?

Also it seems it would have been a cheaper than more expensive since the boat is older than originally quoted ? New more value ?
I know it is only seven dollars, but this logic of cost increase does not make any sense nor has it happened to me in the past.
Having insurance with Worldwide for the past few years without a claim and or any issues has been nice until now.
Unfortunately I do not agree with this extra charge and am fear of more frivolous charges in continuing to do business beyond this year and furthermore feel obligated to warn and share my recent experience with fellow TFF anglers here in Texas of your practice.
I will pay the seven dollars and consider it a lesson well learned.

Regards,

Bass&More

I've found World Wide Marine to be a great company to deal with, I repowered this year after I had made my annual payment. I contacted them to increase my coverage, once I provided them with the information requested, all they needed was the VIN, I was covered the same day.

Great customer service IMO.

Sounds like they were given incorrect info and once corrected it added the $7. Where did the bad info come from?

My boat was built in 94, but it is considered a 95 model...maybe this is the same thing?
