Boat Insurance Leaving You High and Dry?
Boat owners, imagine this:
You are ready for a day at sea. You drive to the dock, look out at the water with a smile on your face and anticipation tingling in your veins. You board your vessel— and suddenly discover that although your boat is in perfect condition, gleaming and intact, none of your equipment is on board.
Whether your boat is a fishing vessel, stocked with rods and reels, lure and tackle boxes, rigged with GPS devices, depth gauges and fish radar, or whether your boat is a luxurious yacht stocked with televisions and satellite, the items within your boat are at least as important as the vessel itself.
When insuring your boat, then, it is important to consider the value of all of these extra items. Were something to occur to your boat, having it replaced is simply not enough to furnish you with all the equipment necessary to utilize your watercraft as before!
Basic policies usually only cover a small amount of the personal properties contained within a boat, so be sure to talk over your options with your independent insurance agent when insuring your boat.
Whether protecting yourself from disaster or theft, it’s important to have all your bases covered; let Barber Insurance help you determine the total value of your boat.
