What we offer

Hull and Equipment Coverage

Your watercraft is a significant investment, and our hull and equipment coverage ensures that it’s protected against a wide range of risks. This coverage includes protection for the physical structure of your vessel, as well as the onboard equipment and accessories, against damage caused by accidents, weather events, theft, and vandalism. Whether your boat is docked, in transit, or out on the water, we’ve got you covered.

Liability Protection

Accidents on the water can happen, and when they do, the financial consequences can be severe. Our liability protection covers you if you’re found responsible for injury to others or damage to their property while operating your watercraft. This includes legal fees, medical expenses, and repair costs, ensuring that you’re not left financially vulnerable after an incident.

What we offer

Personal Property Coverage

Your watercraft is more than just a vessel—it’s a place where you keep important personal items, such as fishing gear, electronics, and watersports equipment. Our personal property coverage protects these belongings against loss, theft, or damage while they’re on board, giving you peace of mind that your gear is covered.

Medical Payments Coverage

Safety is a top priority when you’re out on the water, but accidents can still occur. Our medical payments coverage helps cover the cost of medical care for you and your passengers if you’re injured in a boating accident, regardless of who is at fault. This coverage ensures that you can focus on recovery without worrying about medical expenses.

What we offer

Uninsured Boater Coverage

Not everyone on the water carries adequate insurance, which can leave you vulnerable if you’re involved in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured boater. Our uninsured boater coverage provides protection in these situations, covering your medical expenses and damage to your vessel if the at-fault party lacks sufficient insurance.

Additional Benefits

Towing and Assistance Coverage

If your watercraft breaks down or you run out of fuel while out on the water, our towing and assistance coverage ensures that help is just a call away. This coverage includes towing services, emergency fuel delivery, and assistance with minor repairs, so you’re never stranded on the water.

Agreed Value Coverage

In the event of a total loss, you want to be sure that your insurance policy provides the full value of your watercraft. Our agreed value coverage ensures that you’ll receive the full insured amount for your vessel without depreciation, providing you with the funds needed to replace your boat with a comparable one.

Coverage for Trailers and Accessories

Transporting your watercraft requires specialized equipment, and our coverage extends to trailers and other accessories necessary for safe transport. This ensures that your entire setup is protected, whether your vessel is on the water or being towed to your next adventure.
