Although boat insurance isn’t required by law, it’s good to have so you can protect your property. Sometimes, you can get boat insured tacked on to an existing policy, however, that coverage typically comes with size restrictions and limits on the amount of coverage offered. Therefore, having a separate boat insurance policy with specialized coverage ensures that your boat or personal watercraft is protected all year round.
If you have a lienholder, they may require you to have certain coverages until the vessel is paid off. Like lienholders, some docks or marinas may require you to have certain coverages for your boat as well. However, this should bring you peace of mind, as having specialized coverage regardless of where you keep your boat means your boat and you are covered.

COVERAGE OPTIONS IN A BOAT INSURANCE POLICY
There’s a lot of responsibility when it comes to owning a boat or personal watercraft, so boat insurance protects you against the unique situations associated with it. Coverage in a boat insurance policy may include:
Comprehensive Coverage
This covers damages from any event that wasn’t the result of a collision. Typically, damages from fires, harsh winds, thunderstorms, other weather-related incidents, and vandalism or theft are covered in a comprehensive plan.
Collision Coverage
Collision coverage is designed to cover damages resulting from any type of collision. This includes collisions with submerged objects, docks, or other vessels.
Emergency Services
This includes towing assistance, fuel delivery, or battery replacement if needed while you’re out on the water.
Personal Property Coverage
This would replace any personal equipment or other property if stolen or lost.
Medical Coverage
For both bodily injury (BI) and property damage (PD). Liability insurance is necessary to cover the other driver’s/drivers’ medical and auto repair costs when you are at fault in an accident. Most insurers bundle the two types of liability coverage together. While other common requirements on this list vary, almost all states require liability coverage.
