More Than Your
Homeowners Policy Covers.

Homeowners policies offer little for boats. A boat policy is built for the water.

Your Boat

Hull, Motor & Trailer

Physical damage coverage for the boat, its motor, and often the trailer, whether the loss happens on the water, in storage, or on the road.

  • ✓ Agreed value or actual cash value
  • ✓ Deductible options change your premium
  • ✓ Lenders typically require it on financed boats
Liability

Injuries & Property Damage

Pays for injuries or damage you cause to other people, boats, or docks. Many marinas ask for proof of liability coverage.

  • ✓ Limits you can raise
  • ✓ Can pair with an umbrella policy
  • ✓ Check your marina's requirements
People

Medical & Uninsured Boater

Medical payments coverage helps with injuries to you and your passengers. Uninsured boater coverage helps when the other operator has no insurance.

  • ✓ Options vary by carrier
  • ✓ Worth reviewing if you carry guests
  • ✓ Ask how it works with health coverage
Extras

Towing, Gear & More

Depending on the carrier, you can add on-water towing, fishing equipment, personal effects, and fuel spill liability.

  • ✓ Availability varies by carrier
  • ✓ On-water towing can be costly without it
  • ✓ We flag what's included versus extra

Match the policy to how you boat.

Where you keep the boat and how you use it shape the coverage.

Homeowners coverage is limited. Most homeowners policies put low limits on watercraft and may exclude liability for larger or faster boats.

Agreed value vs. actual cash value. Agreed value pays a set amount for a total loss. Actual cash value accounts for depreciation. We show you both where available.

Where and when you boat matters. Policies can include navigation limits and lay-up periods. On the Georgia coast, saltwater use and named-storm terms vary by carrier.

Jet skis are rated separately. Personal watercraft usually need their own policy or schedule, and we can quote them with the boat.

We ride what we insure.

Personal watercraft like jet skis need their own policy for both damage and liability. Small unpowered craft like kayaks and paddleboards are often covered under a homeowners policy, with limits. We'll tell you which of yours is which.

Boat Insurance, Answered

State law generally doesn't require it for recreational boats in Indiana or Georgia, but lenders and many marinas do. Liability is the main reason owners carry it.
Only in a limited way. Homeowners policies typically put low limits on watercraft and may exclude liability for larger or faster boats. A boat policy covers the boat, your liability on the water, and often the trailer.
Agreed value pays the amount set in the policy if the boat is a total loss. Actual cash value pays what the boat was worth at the time, after depreciation. Agreed value usually costs more.
Often, yes, as part of the boat policy, though some carriers list it separately. Liability while towing generally comes from your auto policy. We confirm both.
Yes. We're licensed in Georgia. Saltwater use, navigation limits, and named-storm deductibles vary by carrier, so we compare the options for where the boat is kept.
