Coverage highlights
If you don’t have a separate boat or private watercraft insurance policy, you’re probably underinsured. Most homeowners insurance policies have size restrictions, limitations on horsepower, and limits on damage coverage for watercraft. We can customize a policy for you that includes:
- Liability coverage, which protects you against damage to others or their personal property
- Collision coverage to protect you against accidents with underwater objects and other watercraft
- Medical payments for accident-related injuries
- Damages to any accessories, such as personal items or fishing equipment
- Uninsured boater liability, which protects you if you’re in an accident with a boater who has no insurance
- Total loss replacement if your boat is destroyed
- Towing for your damaged boat
- Emergency expenses to cover temporary living expenses
- Fire and theft coverage for your watercraft contents
- Plus:
- Competitive rates
- Coverage for individuals, partnerships, and/or corporate/business owners
- Hurricane safe harbor reimbursement
- On-the-water towing
- Bahamas and Mexico coverage available also
