Getting it right
I was changing coverage for my boat. Went back and forth a few times by email. Then, had two phone calls that straightened everything out and made the most sense. Competent people. Customer driven. Nice job.

I just signed up for your insurance on our Jeanneau 43DS sailboat. My only issue is that you seem a bit understaffed and I need to wait for call-backs after leaving a message. Beyond that your people seem to be efficient and friendly.
