I used both Kevin for 3 policies and then switched to Pam. They are both
the same in responsivness.

Oh boy, this is not good news.  I had a lot of trouble with Kevin Gruys
at
Aircraft and Marine Insurance.  The problem wsn't in getting a quote, it
was
getting the insurance started.  I had to follow up with him 4-5 times
before
we got things squared away.  He didn't deposit my check for over a
month.  I
had to follow up with him to get it deposited (I'm not used to people
having
so much money that they don't deposit payments).  I also had to follow
up to
get my copy of the policy - that took another 3 phone calls and multiple
emails.  Through it all he kept assuring me I had coverage but I was
never
sure.......

I was planning on trying Pam this year but now I'm not so sure.  Thanks
for
the heads up.
