T&T: A nagging question

[Ownyacht at aol.com]

Larry,
 
You are a pessimist, Rich is an optimist and I still believe in the Easter  
Bunny. You think that everyone who has a boat for sale wants to sink it  and 
Rich thinks that insurance companies are going to start doing  things that make 
sense. I guess that I also believe in the Tooth Fairy. Although  my beliefs 
are not insured, they are for sale.

I think  that the insurance companies should try and determine if boats 
were for  sale at the time of the hurricane. The insurance companies
should then try  and determine if those boats were as prepared for the
storm as boats that  were not for sale or boats that were self insured.
I think that the results  might supprise them.

I do not know how long most owners keep their  boats. But, if the number
of almost new boats on the market (two or three  years old) are any
indication, they are not kept very long. If a boat is  insured for hull
value, what better way to dispose of it than thru a  hurricane.
