The challenge

Your homeowners policy probably won’t cover your boat

Homeowners policies usually offer little or no coverage for boats, and one accident on the water can be costly. Many boaters don’t find that out until they need to file a claim.

Whether you have a fishing boat, a pontoon or a personal watercraft, we build coverage around how and where you use it — so your time on the water stays worry-free.

What we can cover

  • Physical damage

    Repairs or replacement after collisions, storms, fire or theft.

  • Liability

    Injuries or property damage you cause while operating your boat.

  • Medical payments

    Medical bills for you and your passengers after an accident.

  • Uninsured boater

    Protection when another boater causes injuries and can't pay.

  • On-water towing and assistance

    Help getting back to shore when you break down.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need boat insurance in Michigan?

Michigan doesn't require it by law, but marinas and lenders often do — and a single accident on the water can be costly.

Does my homeowners policy cover my boat?

Usually only in a very limited way, if at all. A separate boat policy provides much broader protection.

Can you insure jet skis?

Yes, personal watercraft can be insured too. Tell us what you have and we'll quote it.
