  I read about Rob Wolf's construction insurance rate with Avemco and
wanted to pass along my experience with this, which is far less expensive.
  Since I financed my kit, construction insurance was not an option.  I
contacted Zanette Aircraft Insurance Center in San Carlos, CA.  (I believe
Brent Regan recently mentioned that he used Zanette as well.)  They shopped
for me and found a policy for $100K of coverage for $500 a year.  That's
HALF of Avemco's premium.  At renewal time, I'll up the coverage for the
increased value of my project, but I expect the premium will still be around
half the cost of using Avemco.  When it comes time to fly, I'll let them
shop that policy for me as well.  I'd heard Avemco was pretty expensive and
it appears that's a well deserved reputation.
  Zanette's toll free number is 888-723-3358 for anyone interested.
