Imagine you are out on the water and accidentally cause damage to another boat, or worse, someone gets hurt. Liability insurance is there to protect you in such situations. It covers the costs of damage or injuries you're responsible. While we all hope to never be in such a scenario, having liability insurance is a smart move. And helps keep your boating experience worry-free.
Comprehensive coverage is really great for protecting your boat against things we can not control, like fires, theft, or even a bit of mischief. It's super handy, especially when your boat's tucked away in storage and you can't keep an eye on it all the time. Also, if your boat ever bumps into something like another boat, a buoy, or even a dock, collision coverage has got your back.
Insurance for uninsured boaters is like a safety net on the water! Imagine this: you are out enjoying the waves when suddenly, another boat bumps into you.

Boat insurance typically covers damage from collisions, fires, theft, lightning, or vandalism, whether on water or land. This includes the boat, its motor, and attached equipment like anchors. It also offers liability coverage for expenses from accidents involving your boat. This can include bodily injury liability, covering medical bills and related costs if someone gets hurt because of your actions, and property damage liability, for damages to others’ boats or property.
Regardless of your boat’s value, insurance is crucial due to the potential risks involved in boating, like accidents leading to injuries or property damage. Boat insurance can save you from paying these costs from your OWN pocket.
Typically, homeowners insurance offers limited coverage for small boats, but not for personal watercraft like jet-skis. The coverage is often restricted to around $1,000 or 10% of your home’s insured value and usually doesn’t include liability coverage.
Even when not in use, risks like theft or fire persist throughout the year. Keeping your boat insurance active in the off-season protects against these risks, saving you from potential out-of-pocket expenses for damage or theft during these months.
