Civil liability

The third-party liability policy will cover any bodily injury or property damage caused to a third party in the event of an incident.

Purchase financing

Bear in mind that if you are financing the purchase of your boat, the creditor will undoubtedly require liability insurance. He will also require you to insure the material asset.

“approved value

This policy protects your boat at a value agreed between you and your insurer. There will be no depreciation in the event of total loss of your boat.

“Value at date of loss

Compensation is calculated on the basis of the cost of repair or replacement, less depreciation on the object or part.

Theft, vandalism and fire

Would you prefer to take out comprehensive insurance? This covers incidents such as theft or vandalism. In any case, make sure you know what the exclusions are so you can make an informed decision.

collision

Before deciding whether to insure your boat with your homeowner’s policy, check whether it covers collision. This isn’t always the case, and you may want to take out boat insurance to make sure you’re well protected.

Equipment and accessories

Protect your equipment and accessories such as your trailer, motor, sonar and more. Following an accident, you’ll benefit from a settlement based on replacement value. No deductible applies.

Loss of use guarantee

If you lose the use of your boat in the event of a claim, we offer you the rental of a replacement boat up to the amount specified in the conditions of your contract, so you don’t have to miss the season!

General questions

FAQ

Is boat insurance compulsory?

In theory, boat insurance is not compulsory. However, it’s a good idea to at least take out liability insurance. What’s more, in the event of financing, the creditor will usually demand it.

Is it better to take out boat insurance than to add my boat to my home insurance?

You can cover your boat with your home insurance, even if it’s a vehicle. But take the time to understand what’s involved. In fact, in this case, it is mainly civil liability that is covered. Sometimes fire, collision or theft can also be covered. But anything to do with marine assistance or towing at sea, for example, will not be covered. Depending on your needs, you may want to take out boat insurance.

Beyond a certain number of steam horses and boat length, you’ll have no choice but to insure your boat separately. Contact us to find out more!

I'm planning to make some modifications to my boat. What should I do?

For any changes you plan to make, you must first inform your insurance broker. This ensures that you always have the right protection for your boat. What’s more, your insurance may cover certain types of modifications!

  • the inland waters of Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island as far as New York (Hudson River and harbor excluded).
