STATED VALUE POLICIES

The boat owner will be paid the insured value of the boat in the event of a total covered loss. The insurance company will not depreciate the value at the time of the loss. In the event of a total loss with this coverage, the boat owner will receive the insured value of the boat or the actual cash value (depreciated value), whichever is less. For example, if you have your boat insured for $75,000 and have a total loss, the depreciated value of your boat may only be $65,000 and the insurance company will pay the lesser amount. Replacement cost coverage on partial losses is included except for sails, canvas, batteries, outboard engines and machinery. Stated Value is only available on some, but not all, of our policies.

AGREED VALUE POLICIES
Some of our policies are Agreed Value Policies. This means you and your insurance company agree at the very beginning of the policy period what your boat is worth. In the event of a total loss due to fire, theft, sinking, etc., they will pay that agreed amount without a subtraction for depreciation and without the deductible being applied on a total loss.

TOWING COVERAGE

This coverage applies to any service charge the insured may incur by receiving marine assistance. This may include coverage for a service charge for towing due to engine failure, mechanical breakdown, grounding and delivery of fuel.

UNINSURED BOATER COVERAGE

Coverage that is a secondary medical payment coverage for the insured only. If you are injured by an uninsured boater or a hit and run vessel, Uninsured Boater Coverage will pay the insured for any medical expenses above and beyond the Medical Payment Coverage limit. Many watercraft liability policies do not include Uninsured Boater coverage.
