From fishing boats to large yachts with a crew, be sure you are protected for all your adventures on the water. Boat insurance protects your watercraft from covered physical damages and loss caused by common risks such as sinking, fire, collision, capsizing, storms, and theft. You can also purchase coverage for medical payments, personal property (including fishing equipment), towing, trailer, and uninsured boater coverage. It is important to note that watercraft policies can and do vary with respect to coverages, exclusions, endorsements, limitations and other terms and conditions. Our knowledgeable agents can help you explore the various options that may be available to you.
Typically, vessels larger than 27’ are referred to as yachts. Because these boats have more unique exposures, such as travelling further distances, yacht insurance policies generally provide broader coverage as compared to policies geared towards smaller boats.
Depending on which carrier you choose to purchase your boat insurance through, there are a number of other optional coverages that you may be able to add. These can include, but are not limited to:
