If the insurance company deems the boat a Total Loss, you will still have the option to buy the boat back from them for the boat's Salvage Value. This could possibly be your best option --- depending on the numbers. If they pay you the boat's ACV, and then you buy it back for the Salvage Value, you might have more than enough money to get it repaired somewhere.
Good points. A surveyor looks to be my best optioon right now either way.
If it's a total loss, would a survey from last year still be valid? The one I have is for $37k and that was before I brought her to the condition it is now. Will it help my case? I saw the boats on YW and they are no where near in the condition, or have the equipment I have.
Also, if the boat gets fixed, will the boat be worth less because it was repaired?
So did you hire your own surveyor? If so, what did he say?
