Is anyone a member? I recently did their training course and joined.
Figured it was a long shot but sent my training certificate in to my insurance agent. Got me a 10% break! State Farm. If you’re an ABC member and have taken the class then it might be worth a shot.

I'm with State Farm and I took my safety course years ago and I've gotten 10%off since then.

Yes. My wife and I are also members. Well worth the classroom time and insurance break.

Joined the usps around 1977 when I got my first boat but haven’t been active in many years. It’s a great organization. Remember taking the navigation classes with compass & charts. Bygone days.

That's the truth. I'm recommending that they add backing up the boat and trailer into the garage though. I'll pass that too

+1 or a boat survey or search or opinion (don't ask about the smaller engine size)

Yes I agree the 240 is a great choice but I still wish I could get the 130 opel engine.

Without BBP we wouldn't have a steering wheel on our boat. I'll stop giving him a hard time.

Without nauti's I wouldn't have great tunes or even captains call in a box.

Please don't stop now Jeff!

I completed the USPS ABC course this spring. The course cost $70. Before the course, my annual insurance premium was $525. After I completed the course and sent in the documentation to BoatUS insurance, my annual premium is now $505. That's a 2.8 year ROI
