Took me about two weeks comparing quotes on coverage for our boat before the season. Lesson one: the cheapest quote usually hides gaps in coverage. Check whether the hull is insured at agreed value or ACV — with ACV, depreciation eats the payout after a total loss. If the boat is older, expect the insurer to ask for a recent survey. The hard part is the policy language, so a good starting point is <a href=https://yacht-insurance.net>yacht-insurance.net</a> — it covers the main policy terms in plain English. Also read the navigation limits carefully: going past the listed waters can leave you uncovered. On the East Coast and the Gulf, the named storm deductible is often a percentage of hull value, not a flat amount. Pay attention to liability limits — wreck removal and damage to other boats can cost more than the boat itself. Compare two or three carriers and read the exclusions before you sign.
