A sports cruiser is generally considered to be similar to a speedboat but has the room for at least one cabin. They are motor cruisers which have been designed with the sports enthusiast in mind. The price and size of these vessels can range from about �15000 for a Jeanneau Leader 515, upwards to well over �150,000. Other competitively priced boats are the Cuddy Cabins produced by the likes of Bayliner, which are smaller in size but still offer a small underdeck cabin to relax in. Some are built by the same manufacturers as the motor cruisers to complete a full range of boats. At the luxury and performance end of the market both Fairline and Sealine amongst others have a sports series in their range.

Boat Insurance - Find the Best Low Rate Policy - Find Great Coverage

By Bryan Burbank

If you own a boat it may be one of the largest purchases you have ever made, therefore it should be adequately protected. If you own a boat and have an accident then you will be responsible to pay for your own repairs as well as any damage you may do to any other boat. This is the reason you need to have boat insurance. Boat insurance operates in a very similar manner to any vehicle insurance you may have.

The fear of having your boat vandalized or stolen is very prevalent in todays society. If you do not have the proper insurance coverage that can cause you a lot of unnecessary grief and this is the reason to have a good policy with adequate coverage. Insurance for your boat may not be cheap, but if you own a boat you must factor the cost of insurance into your monthly boat expense.

To find good insurance I recommend that you work with an agent that you trust and that is also familiar in writing coverage for a boat. If you do not have an agent you can look on the Internet but be careful and don't choose the first coverage that you find. Get multiple quotations on rates and check very carefully the deductions and exclusions. Remember that the cheapest policy you find is not always going to be your best choice because you want the right coverage.

Do keep in mind when signing up for insurance to be honest about the condition of your boat and its value because if you lie about these facts the insurance company upon inspection will realize that your boat is not worth as much as you said and they may not want to insure you or if they do you may get overcharged.

Owning a boat can be a lot of fun so just make sure that you have adequate coverage to protect yourself against any unforeseen disaster with your boat.

Before 1990, personal watercraft emissions were unregulated in the United States. Many were powered by two-stroke cycle engines, which are smaller and lighter than four-stroke cycle engines but much more polluting. Simple two-stroke engines are lubricated on a "total loss" method, mixing lubricating oil with their fuel; they are estimated to exhaust in excess of 25% of their fuel and oil unburned in addition to the products of incomplete and complete combustion.
