protection matters
the importance of having the right cover for your boat
Having the right insurance for your boat is so important as it will cover you for the unfortunate situations that could turn a great day out in the water, into a bad one. Buying a boat is a big investment, so you must protect it against damage or theft. Insurance for your boat is just as important as car insurance and regardless of how experienced you are, you should make sure you protect yourself against inexperienced or careless boaters. You do not want to be left with an inoperable boat and huge repair bills.
Having a good quality boat insurance policy will help put your mind at ease, which means you can concentrate on having fun on the water.
If there is a storm or your boat is damaged by vandals, without the correct insurance to cover the damages, you will have to pay for the repairs yourself.
Before you take ownership of your boat, you’ll need a good insurance policy in place.
