Memphis Boat Insurance

Getting out of the city and onto the water in your watercraft can be a wonderful escape from the day-to-day Memphis bustle. But having fun on the water can also increase liability risks. There are dangers that come with sailing around others who may not be insured as well as you are, or at all. There are also the natural risks of weather changes and rocks or debris in the water, which can be avoided but not controlled.

With all of these in mind, let’s make sure your “financial boat” doesn't sink should you encounter rough waters.

The fact is, Memphis homeowner policies usually place numerous restrictions on boat owners, depending on the size and horsepower of your watercraft. The coverage that can be gotten by listing your boat on your Memphis homeowners policy may not be enough to properly cover both liability and damage repair or replacement, and will have an effect on your home’s coverage as well as your boat’s if a claim is bad enough.

In other words, if you don't carry a Memphis boat insurance policy, you may be underinsured. The best way to ensure that your boat is adequately insured is to get it its own policy. This secures your vessel’s safety in the case of damages and repairs or replacement, as well as having enough protection to cover any liability issues that result from an accident.

Typical coverages should include:

• Personal liability - provides for payments to the repairs or replacement of other people’s property caused by your vessel, as well as any medical payments that may need to be made.
  
  
• Boat – pays for repair or replacement of the vessel or its insured accessories.
  
  
• Motor – pays for the repair or replacement of the motor due to damage in an accident or wear and tear over time.
  
  
• Trailer – pays for the boat’s transport.
  
  
• Medical and physical damage perils – as mentioned with liability, and medical issues that arise from a boating accident will incur costs and payments, which this helps with.

You may think you want the cheapest insurance you can find, but cheap isn't everything.

While most insurance products are similar in price and function, Memphis insurance providers vary when it comes to structuring a policy that actually covers you.
