The quote received was less than half price for insurance renewal quoted directly from Navigators and General. Not sure what this is all about?
Company replied

Company replied
Very easy to navigate and good choice of insurers. All of the relevant information on exclusions were clearly laid out. Would recommend.

Wow how incredibly rude !
I have an old 1970's sailing dinghy, i have spent three months reparing and painting this vessel.
I filled in an online form and recived a call from an agent, when I explained that I did not know the model of this dinghy. I was told "good bye" and the phone was put down on me.

Reply from Compare Boat Insurance
We are truly sorry to hear about your frustrating experience. We understand how upsetting it must have been to have the call ended so abruptly, especially after all the effort you've put into restoring your dinghy. We are reviewing our call handling procedures to ensure such incidents do not happen again and that all our agents provide the respectful and helpful service we expect. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
