If you’re a boater, it’s essential you have boat insurance. Why? Consider this:

• Suddenly blown to port by a wind gust while you’re taking your 30 footer down the channel, your stern hits a boat in the slip. The person on the 30 foot docked boat is working below deck on his engine. He slips and falls and gashes his head.
• You lose control over the boat while pulling out of a fuel dock and hit the boat in the next fuel dock
• You take on water in the bilge from an unseen leak and your boat sink.

All of the above incidents are true. Boating mishaps can happen to anyone and you need special boat insurance to protect you from yourself, other boaters and to some extent, the elements.
 

Boat Defined

Loose definition of boats are as follows:

• Personal Watercraft- less than 16 feet long
• Boat- 16 to 25 feet
• Yacht- Equal or greater than 26 feet

Some people think their boat is covered under their homeowner’s policy. If so, the coverage would be very limited and only available for very small watercraft.
