Valuation hassle

Better rates. Having to find bill of sale for boat value is a pain. The other 4 companies I priced with did not require this.

Thanks so much for the review Kenneth. Weve built Ahoy! to be what we, being boaters ourselves, would have liked to have. So reading your review is the best reward we could have. Ahoy!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great experience so far

I put a call into Ahoy as I was researching insurance companies, and the gentleman I spoke with answered my questions professionally, explaining their position in the marketplace. I felt very comfortable with them, and their pricing was the best I could find. If I ever have a claim I will know more. Thanks Ahoy, I’ll be taking photos of my boat once I get it unwrapped and ready for the season.

Thanks Joe for the detailed review. Being boaters ourselves we built Ahoy! to be what we would have liked to have as an insurance partner. So having this feedback from a fellow boater is our greatest reward. Gordon who you spoke with is indeed great and we conveyed your sentiment to him. Ahoy!

Dear Simon. We are sorry to hear about your experience. Being part of the boater community we aspire to provide the service we would have liked to receive.

Upon further investigation we didnt find any calls or voicemails received in the last couple of weeks.

Anthie from our team updated about the call she had with you and we are glad to know that your needs were addressed. This is what is most important to us.

We are running more investigations on the IT side so to ensure we provide the best service at the best quality and timing.
