It's recommended that boat owners carry enough insurance to cover the value of the boat. This varies depending on the replacement value of the boat. If you live in a wealthy area, you may want higher liability limits in order to cover possible expensive damages after an accident.
Boat insurance policies generally cover:
- Physical Damage: This covers the boat and its attached fittings and fixtures from fire, theft, vandalism, wind, hail and collision.
- Medical Payments: This covers medical expenses for the policyholder and their passengers after an accident.
- Liability: This covers bodily injury and property damage the boater may cause to someone else in an accident.
- Guest Passenger Liability: This covers expenses if a permissible passenger causes an accident while operating the boat.
Boat insurance isn't legally required, but certain marinas will require boat insurance.
