Hagerty Offers Discount for ACBS Members
Hagerty has been a sponsor of the Antique and Classic Boat Society (www.acbs.org) since 2000. The two found a unique relationship through common goals and visions of the antique and classic boat industry. Since 2005, this partnership includes an additional ACBS member benefit, a 10-percent discount on Hagerty's agreed-value, full coverage for wooden boat owners.
Founded in 1975 on the shores of Lake George, N.Y., ACBS has grown into the largest society in the world dedicated to the preservation and enjoyment of historic, antique and classic boats. ACBS brings collectors with the common interest together to share fellowship, information, experiences and ideas. The Society has more than 8,000 members spread out through 51 regional chapters in North America.
"We feel it is important to have a partnership with an organization like ACBS. Its membership consists of people who strive to protect the heritage and enjoyment of boating by promoting the safety, preservation and restoration of these classic vessels. The owner profile of the ACBS membership is deserving of the discount," says McKeel Hagerty, president of Hagerty Classic Marine Insurance.
