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.”

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.”

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.”

Repeat customer
“I have dealt with NBOA insurance twice and both times I couldn't have been more satisfied. They shopped and got me great insurance, were courteous and took the time to explain everything. My agent was above and beyond in knowledge and courteousness. I can't say enough about NBOA and highly recommend them — five stars all the way.”

Yacht coverage
“NBOA and my agent were amazing. They were knowledgeable, efficient, and pleasant to work with. I was able to get insurance for a sizable yacht. I cannot recommend NBOA enough.”

Catamaran coverage
“Excellent service. My agent was very professional, knowledgeable and prompt with all communications. He was able to obtain the most competitive rate for insuring my catamaran. Thanks NBOA.”

Survey & binding
“The agent was efficient in detailing the information needed to complete an accurate quote for a boat in the process of being acquired. The quote was competitively priced taking into account the expected cruising area and season. After a professional survey was conducted and submitted to confirm the boat's condition and insurable value, binding was done and confirmation e-mailed to me. Very pleased.”

Quick online quote
“Needed to get boat insurance for my 18' runabout. I was a previous NBOA member so I simply got on line, and in short order, filled out a simple questionnaire and in minutes had a response from a Progressive agent. Easy process and in short order I had a very affordable policy with all the coverage I needed and more!”
