I cant imagine they would like it if something were to happen and it was related to to much power..such as speed. Guessing here but as ling as it wasnt related to that they wouldnt care?
Ha ha good one ! Anything to get out of paying a claim would be looked at these days.
Rip the ass end off that boat, who you going after ? Boat maker, Motor Co., Ins ? Would be a pretty penny out of your own pocket, not worth it IMO.

The 621 and 622 are both only rated for 400hp. How does insurance, licensing, etc. work when you are over the horsepower rating?
The main concern is the weight limit on the transom. If followed neither licencing of insurance are an issue. There is however no warranty on the transom through the factory. After market warranty can be purchased but fairly expensive.

Yup agree. Thats why i indicated anything to do with to much power...such as what you said. They would 100% decline it. Even the manufacturer would run from it. I dont however think they would decline lets say hail damage even if the motor was over, or someone running into the side of it while on the trailer...just as an example

Not exactly a walleye boat but I suppose you could technically catch fish out of it….maybe?

My ex-wife had a Bahner jet boat with a tricked out 454 in it.

I rode it in ONE time.

I have no idea how fast we were going, I was too busy praying.

Ps: she thought it was hilarious!

Insurance covers both for accidents and negligence. Pretty sure he isn't running around without insurance. I have talked with my agent about this specifically and he said they don't care what the boat manufacturer or coast guard plate says. He compared it to buying a car and modifying it with performance additions. You can even insure the modifications with an agreed upon value or for specific non-street uses. For them, it all comes down to premiums and being able to collect enough to cover the risk.

I have agreed values on 2 boats and 2 older pickups so I've kind of ran through the gauntlet on some of this.
