What is Marine Insurance?

Yacht, boat, and marine insurance are types of liability coverage for your aquatic property. Your coverage will depend on your property, lifestyle, and insurance needs. Marine insurance covers not only damage to your vessel but also bodily injury and personal property on the boat. Boats are considered to be 26 feet or smaller, while yachts are considered 27 feet or larger, which impacts the type of insurance you will receive. Typically, yacht coverage is broader, more specialized, and more comprehensive due to the vessel's value, likelihood of traveling further, and more prospected time spent on board. While most policies do not include general wear and tear of your marine vessel, they are crucial in the event of costly damage.

Why Do I Need Marine Insurance?

Much like your home and car, your marine vessel is also an important investment. To ensure the utmost protection - and more financial stability in the event of damage - insurance is a sound solution. Stay protected in the event of theft, damage, or bodily injury with a marine insurance policy. Whether your boat or yacht is for personal or commercial use, insurance may come in handy. There are a number of risks your vessel may face, from extreme weather to collisions and more. Marine insurance can keep you afloat, even when your vessel can't. Some marinas or storage facilities require marine insurance to keep your boat on the property.
