Yachts & Boats insurance is offered coverage for Hull & Machinery, Collision and Legal Liabilities.
Hull & Machinery Insurance covers Limited or Comprehensive Insurance for loss or damage to vessel against loss or physical damage. Coverage extends
to all equipment that is mounted on the boat or used to operate it safely. Such equipment includes horns, lights, dinghies, boat & motor covers, signaling devices, depth finders, ship to shore radios, and boat furniture. Most policies also extend coverage to trailers that are designed for and used to transport
the boat.
Collision & Legal Liabilities covers damage that an insured is legally obligated to pay arising out of the ownership or use of a covered vessel.
