There is nothing like spending the day on the water, whether relaxing, skiing, or fishing for the next big catch. The last thing you want to think about is a hiccup in your trip, but unfortunately, accidents happen. What would you do if you were suddenly stranded offshore? How would you pay for environmental clean-up if you sunk your vessel? Could you afford the repair or replacement cost if your boat collided with another vessel? These are the types of questions that can really put a damper on your water adventures. Fortunately, boat insurance from Insurance Broker Direct can give you the peace of mind you need to enjoy the water and cast your cares away.
Types of Boat Insurance Coverage
A lot can go wrong when you own a boat. Your insurance needs will vary depending on what type of boat you own, how you use it, how often you use it, where you store it, and more. Don’t rely on your homeowner’s insurance, either. Even if you store your boat on your personal property, your homeowner’s insurance is unlikely to provide coverage to protect your vessel against loss. We offer dedicated boat insurance policies that cover your vessel against a wide range of losses from bow to stern.
Property Coverage
This is protection for the boat itself if it is damaged by a covered event. It pays for repair or replacement against things like collisions, fires, and theft.
Liability Coverage
Boater’s liability insurance is there for you if you are sued for property damages, medical expenses, and other losses after an accident you are responsible for.
Medical Payments Coverage
This protection helps pay your medical bills, as well as those of your passengers if you are involved in an accident.
Uninsured Boater Insurance
This coverage helps pay for injuries to you and your passengers if you are hurt by an uninsured boater.
Emergency Assistance
When your boat experiences a mechanical failure or runs out of fuel out on the water, your insurance can help cover the cost of towing and assistance.
Accessories and Equipment Coverage
You can add coverage for any personal items, special equipment or after-market accessories lost or damaged due to a covered event. This might include navigation equipment, fishing equipment, anchors, life jackets, and more.
Boat Trailer Insurance
If your boat trailer is damaged in an accident, insurance can give you peace of mind that it will be repaired or replaced.
