Watercraft Insurance
We provide insurance for many kinds of pleasure craft ? sail and power, inboard or inboard/outdrive. As a general rule, we insure powerboats and sailboats up to 40 feet. We also have a special policy for outboard boats under 18 feet with an outboard engine less than 90 hp and total value under $15,000 .

Small boats or tenders used to service your watercraft are now automatically covered, subject to certain length, value and hp limitations.
Your Unattached Equipment is automatically insured up to 10% of hull value (or $100, whichever is greater). If you need a higher limit you can choose an Additional Unattached Equipment endorsement with a separate deductible.
