[Rhodes22-list] Outboard Insurance

[Frank Goldsmith]

I use USAA for all my insurance except the Rhodes; for that, I went with BoatUS/GEICO.  The policy says only that it covers the “hull and equipment,” without mentioning the outboard specifically, but “equipment” is defined very broadly in the policy.
