I had the PLAYPEN painted by Tim Silvio from DOWNJERSEY MARINE in Grenwich NJ-he did a super job. My boat is located in Somers point @ Harbour View slip D19 if you want to look at it.

charlie falkenstein

THANKS-just got off phone with BOATUS and they are almost half of my last quote, i just had a survey done and the appraised value came back at 170000.00,using that value the quote was 1247.00, with a 1% deductible. know nobody would pay 170000.00 for it cause its an 1981, but wont find a nicer boat ...

charlie falkenstein

my last insurance bill on the PLAYPEN came in at 2138.00 (travelers ins. co)i am told by my agent that because the boat is over 25 years old that only select insurances companies will even quote on it.

any suggestions?

charlie falkenstein

Peter- glad you recieved the chock,sounds like just another project, boats are incredible, every one hour job seems to turn into a major project, got to love it!
