[Oeva-list] Insurance for home-built?

[Tony McCormick]

The is an legal alternative to liability insurance, it's called a Bond.  
Check with the State regulators, but in most states you can post a bond 
in lieu of buying insurance.   It is usually the same amount as the 
minimum required policy, which I think is $15,000. but I'm not sure of that.
