Motorboat insurance can help protect your boat from certain risks. Depending on what coverage you choose, you can tailor the policy to suit your boating needs.
Actual cash value coverage: This type of coverage accounts for depreciation when paying for repairs.
Agreed amount coverage: This type of coverage helps to pay for repairs based on how much your boat is worth. The value of this will be agreed between you and your insurer when you purchase coverage.
Here are the different types of coverage that could be included in motorboat insurance policies:
Liability coverage can help you cover expenses if you cause an accident which damages another person’s property.
This type of coverage will cover any medical payments should you or any of your passengers incur any injuries whilst on the boat. This can include any medication, X-rays or scans and any unexpected hospital bills.
Uninsured watercraft coverage will cover you for any costs should you collide with an uninsured or underinsured boater. Should this happen, the policy will cover any expenses associated with bodily injuries as well as property damage.
Taylor Watkins offers bespoke insurance policies which vary on a case-by-case basis. If you are concerned about any additional components such as special equipment, boat trailers, towing coverage or any boat accessories, you can include this when requesting a quote. Other potential elements to take into consideration are the cost of fuel spills or the cost of wreckage removal should there be an accident on the water.
