H34 Insurance Company is Totalling the boat

[Artey1]

Sorry to hear about the loss of your boat. I wish I were closer to come get some of the items off of your boat. Those newfound metals portlights look very nice still, and you said you had almost new sails? Wow!

@PGIJon That is really sad to hear about the loss of your boat.
What electronics do you have that might be worth salvaging? Do you have an autopilot, any displays?
I may also be interested in the breaker panel.

The breaker panel is still there, nothing much else left.

I have a brand new Ray Marine P70 Autopilot control head.

Nice looking boat. What damage caused it to be declared totaled?

Thank You. Mast Step, Found salt on engine, sole.... rigging. Soffits from someones house sliced into some of the standing rigging.... The insurance agent wouldn't even write it up, said she didn't want to waste 1/2 a day and declared it a total loss and paid off the insured value of the boat.

Since my boat was damaged by Hurricane Zeta and I have Progressive Ins too, this is how they declare total loss.

Fair Market Value * 10% = Salvage Parts Value

Damage Claim ≥ Difference from above =Totaled Boat.

Jim...

PS: Progressive will call 3 Salvage Companies to get their quotes.

To see my notes on Progressive Totaling my boat look here, my post #58.

Truly sorry to hear this. Since they offered to let you strip it. I would be heart broken but do the same thing as you.

Take care and be blessed.

how are the sails?

 

[sailor832]

hi poison
if still available I would buy all the cushions and teak boards from the cockpit and the sink faucet. I have a 1984 34 I am trying to fix up I could come pick-up

 

[PGIJon]

Sorry... Everything that wasn't spoken for went was taken by Seatow to be demolished on 1/27.

 

[splax]

i would be interested in a jib winch and the starboard stanchions and life lines.I really only need the upper life line, but that would be a pain to remove singly.

 

[splax]

also the sails if they are still available

I know a salvage H34 from our sailing club that has all stanchions and 3/4 lifelines available. The bottom starboard lifeline is broken, but the others are useable. Please PM me if you're interested. I would have to check on sails - I know the main isn't available, but maybe a jib.

Tip: SeaTow has many salvaged parts. Kinda like "you pull them" but for sale.
