Real Policyholders on what it's like to work with NBOA

Progressive comparison
“Great experience buying boat insurance with my agent. It was issued through Progressive. Wasn't the cheapest, however the coverage is excellent, I did not have to get a survey nor do I have to move it in land during a named storm. I had 7 quotes — put them all on a spreadsheet to compare and Progressive won. By paying the annual premium in one lump sum, it knocked over $700 off the bill.”
E. Wolfe
Chubb wake boat
“Go here for insurance first. Found insurance for my wake boat through Chubb, one of the highest rated underwriters, and my premium was half the cost of other quotes I received from typical big name auto and home insurers. The customer service is second to none. I would specifically like to thank my agent for taking such great care of us. His professionalism, patience, and responsiveness were what closed the deal for us.”
S. Archer
Switched agencies
“The agency is much more knowledgeable about the marine industry than my previous agent. They saved me considerable money and actually found a major mistake from my previous agent that listed coverage area incorrectly. They worked to get me much better rates with the same coverage and extended discounts based on my outstanding record with no violations and safety courses as well as many other discounts. I highly recommend NBOA.”
