I agree with Cathy. The title of rank 3 is well-optimized. It has used targeted keyphrases.

I would say you've diluted your placement for 'cheap boat insurance' with the addition of all the other words.

I'd suggest that Google is thinking something like 'this person wants cheap boat insurance. All these pages mention it, but this one (ie yours), comapred to some of the others covers a lot more ground and so if this person had typed in 'cheap boat insurance kent' they might be more interested in this (your) site but as they haven't it might be too specific for this searcher.

If domain name was the deciding factor then 'cheapboatinsurance.co.uk' would rank higher than 'silversurfers.net' and they don't.
