Marine Insurance Now has released a beginner’s guide to boat insurance, covering everything from coverage options and add-ons to common exclusions and limitations.

New York, United States - November 10, 2023 /PressCable/ —
The new guide provides first-time boat owners with all the information needed to make informed decisions when purchasing insurance, starting with an outline of coverage types. As explained in the report, without adequate coverage in place, boat owners can find themselves with significant financial burdens when accidents occur.

To secure the best deal when purchasing boat insurance, readers are advised to consider their own personal risk factors, such as navigation location and previous boating experience. "The more experienced and safer a boater is, the lower their premiums are likely to be," the publication explained.
It added that when offering quotes, insurance companies will also assess risk based on their own criteria and may consider prior accidents or claims as well as boat type, age, value, and horsepower.
Marine Insurance Now also advocates for certain add-ons to enhance their boat insurance policies. In particular, it recommends three add-ons - total loss replacement, fishing equipment coverage, and emergency assistance coverage - to give boat owners additional protection and peace of mind when out at sea. With emergency assistance coverage, for example, boat owners can rest assured that towing assistance, fuel delivery, or battery jump-starts will be provided when unexpected events occur.
The article also covers deductibles, which refer to the amount of money boat owners will pay before the insurance coverage takes over. Although higher deductibles often result in lower premiums, readers are told to assess their own financial circumstances to check if they can pay the deductible if an accident were to occur.
Other tips for lowering boat insurance premiums include taking a boating safety course and installing safety and security features such as alarms and GPS tracking systems. Alternatively, boat insurance can be added to current auto or home insurance policies, which often results in significant discounts.
Marine Insurance Now's article features some of the common exclusions and limitations often set out in boat insurance policies, including wear and tear, consequential losses, and racing competitions.
"Understanding the various options available will help ensure that you select a boat insurance policy that matches both your needs as a boat owner and the type of boat you own," the author wrote.

David Toutain witnessed the birth of the Michelin Green Star in 2020. His eponymous restaurant in Paris was among the first to be awarded while Feuille, his Hong Kong outpost, secured one within a year of its 2023 opening. But even when Michelin quietly retired the award this year, he still never understood exactly how it was assessed. “I have no idea,” he says. “I don’t know the rules. I don’t know anything about it, to be very honest.” His confusion points to a larger problem. The Green Star...

Halloween in Europe does not have to mean flying to one of the usual capitals. Some of the most atmospheric — and unsettling — stories are found in smaller historic cities and towns, where medieval streets, old legends and genuinely macabre landmarks are still part of the landscape.
