Insurance for a retract can easily be three times that for a similar

My insurance is $1,400/year on $90k hull. How much would a stiff leg 172
be?


It wouldn't be three times. My 67 182 was usually right at $1000 for a
$70K hull. My Bo is $2200 this year with a $90K hull. That's on its
way down as I got the Bo with zero retract time last year. I would
expect the premium to be in the $1800 range next year.
