Yup was in negotiation for new insurance days before IRMA. After IRMA the broker called me and said all new insurance quotes are cancelled and offered no information as to when I could get a new quote.

Our insurance company won't insure boats within the hurricane zone, so we don't expect an increase.

Mine went up 45% BoatUS switching to GEICO. But I got insurance for a boat that is near 40 years old.
