Do I legally need boat insurance?
It is not a legal requirement to have boat insurance for most waterways. However, you should consider the cost of repairing damage to boats or other property when considering whether or not to get boat insurance. On top of this, many marinas require insurance if you want to have your boat docked at their facilities. Without boat insurance you run the risk of a fine or being asked to leave the marina.
What types of boat insurance are there?
Just like car insurance, you can get different levels of boat insurance. This includes:
- Third party – to cover damage to other people or their property
- Third party, fire, and theft – to cover the above as well as fire damage or if you boat gets stolen
- Comprehensive – to cover the widest range of issues, including damage to your boat
The right level of cover for your circumstances will depend on how you use your boat.
What other types of insurance do I need?
If you use your boat as part of your business, you might need to consider additional insurance. For example, public liability insurance will protect you if people get hurt in relation to your business. If you are unsure what kind of insurance you need, you can contact us.
