Yacht Insurance

Finding the perfect coverage has never been easier.

Insurance doesn’t have to be boring. That’s why we hired Sara East to be our BA insurance writer. Maggie specializes in making mundane subjects hella-entertaining.

Yachts are a luxurious way to be on the water, but owning a yacht means having the right insurance in the event of damage or being destroyed. Because of their price, repair or replacement is likely to be very expensive making the proper coverage crucial for boat owners.

Before using your yacht, an independent agent can work with you to create a customized yacht insurance policy to your specific watercraft, its value, and how you use it. 

Boating Statistics

No one likes to think about the dangers of boating, but accidents can happen and it's best to be prepared in the event that you face unexpected hardship. Whether you hit another boater, have an incident with a passenger, or your boat is damaged while being transported or docked, lots of things can lead to a financial headache for you.

Here are some statistics about boating accidents.

• Cabin motorboats, which include yachts, accounted for 14% of all boating accidents
• Only about 20% of all boaters who drowned were on vessels larger than 21 feet
• Operator inattention was cited as the leading cause of accidents involving cabin motorboats

What Is Yacht Insurance and What Does It Cover?

Yacht insurance is a specialized type of boat insurance for luxury boats. Yachts can be used for personal as well as commercial use, so insurance policies must be created to accommodate each of those needs. 

While yachts, like most boats, depreciate over time, they still generally have a much higher than average value. Because of their high values, a standard boat insurance policy may not provide enough coverage for your vessel.

The components of yacht insurance are similar to standard boat insurance coverage.

• Bodily injury and property damage liability: Covers the costs associated with injuries or property damage you cause to another person, as well as legal fees. If the liability limits in your yacht insurance policy are not adequate to protect your assets from a lawsuit, you may want to consider buying an umbrella liability policy , which provides a much higher liability limit.
• Collision coverage: Pays for damage to your boat after a collision with another boat or object.
• Comprehensive coverage: Covers non-collision damage or loss, including theft, fire, vandalism, or damage caused by an object other than another boat.

Additional yacht insurance options to consider

• Uninsured/underinsured boaters insurance:  Covers any damage or injuries from an accident with an uninsured or underinsured boater. Since boat insurance is rarely required by law, if you have a significant amount invested in a vessel, this is a good insurance option to discuss with your agent. 
• Medical payments coverage: Covers medical expenses and funeral expenses for anyone on that is injured, entering, leaving or while on your boat.
• Equipment and personal effects coverage: Pay to repair or replace damaged or lost items such as gear, fishing equipment, cameras, and other personal belongings.

An independent agent can work with you to determine the appropriate coverage for your needs. Because these agents work with multiple insurance companies, they can help protect all of your interests with a broad range of insurance coverage, all from one agency office.

Is Yacht Insurance Different from Standard Boat Insurance?

Yacht insurance provides similar types of coverage as standard boat insurance . However, yachts have some specific differences from standard boats, and yacht owners generally need certain protection that regular boat insurance does not provide.

For example, a yacht policy tends to restrict hauling on a trailer to only a few hundred miles, while boat insurance tends to provide coverage for trailering over longer distances. 

Also, deductibles for yacht policies are very flexible, instead of having set amounts like $250, $500 or $1,000. In addition, yacht policies can include coverage for raising and removing a sunken yacht, while boat policies generally do not include this coverage.

Is Yacht Insurance Required?

Yacht insurance is not typically required by state law. However, sailboats often do have insurance requirements. So, if you have a sailing yacht, insurance may be required by law. 

Yacht club membership statistics

You will also need to buy insurance to protect your investment in your vessel if you finance the purchase of your yacht through a lender.

Many marinas require that you have insurance in order to slip your boat at the marina. Check your local marina's guidelines, and be sure to learn about your state’s laws and regulations. 

Do I Need Yacht Insurance?

A yacht can range in price from $300,000 to several million dollars. Purchasing one is a big investment and having the ability to insure your investment can ease your mind if there's an accident or your yacht needs repairs or replacement.

Insuring your yacht is also not just about the boat. In the event that an injured party files a liability claim against you, you will want to have enough coverage in place to protect your boat, home, savings, investments, and future income.

Assessing your financial situation will help you to determine how much yacht insurance you need.

What Is Yacht Insurance?

Yacht insurance is an insurance policy that provides indemnity liability coverage for a sailing vessel. It includes liability coverage for bodily injury or damage to the property of others and damage to personal property on the vessel. Depending on the insurance provider, this insurance could also include gas delivery, towing, and assistance if your yacht gets stranded.

Key Takeaways

• Yacht insurance provides indemnity liability coverage for a sailing vessel.
• It has two principal parts: hull insurance and protection and indemnity (P&I) insurance.
• While there is no legal agreed upon length that separates a yacht from a pleasure boat, generally it is considered to be somewhere between 27 and 30 feet.

Understanding Yacht Insurance

Some companies specialize in providing coverage for antique and classic boats. You can choose between an actual cash value or agreed value policy. The former is cheaper but factors in depreciation and market value, so your payout will be less. Some policies include discounts based on your boating education, safety features, and whether you have a hybrid or electric boat. Some companies also offer a package deal that decreases the rate on a yacht insurance policy if you purchase additional policies, such as for your home or car.

Boats are defined as vessels under 197 feet long, while ships are 197 feet long or longer. There is no agreed upon length for a yacht , but they are generally considered to be at least 30 feet long. A vessel under 27 feet is considered a pleasure boat.  

Although there isn't a standard definition of what the size of a yacht is, we can see that there is a general agreement within a range. With that being said, this general range falls within class 2 and class 3 of the Federal boat classification system.

For its own purposes, the National Boat Owners Association marks the dividing line at 27 feet. Most yacht coverage is broader and more specialized than pleasure boat coverage, because larger vessels travel farther and are exposed to greater risks.

Yacht insurance is broader and more specialized than pleasure boat coverage, due to the fact that a yacht can sail farther and thus runs greater risks.

A yacht insurance deductible, the amount of money you must pay out of your own pocket before your insurance kicks in, is usually a percentage of the insured value. A 1% deductible, for example, means that a boat insured for $100,000 would have a $1,000 deductible. Most lenders allow a maximum deductible of 2% of the insured value.

Generally, yacht insurance coverage does not include wear and tear, gradual deterioration, marine life, marring, denting, scratching, animal damage, osmosis, blistering, electrolysis, manufacturer’s defects, defects in design, and ice and freezing.

Two Parts of Yacht Insurance

There are two principal sections of a yacht insurance policy.

Hull insurance

Hull insurance is an all-risk, direct damage coverage that includes an agreed amount of hull coverage. That amount is settled on when the policy is written, and in the case of a total loss it will be paid out in full. In addition, there is replacement cost coverage on partial losses, though sails, canvas, batteries, outboards, and sometimes outdrives are not include and instead are subject to depreciation.

Protection and indemnity (P&I)

Protection and indemnity (P&I) insurance is the broadest of all liability coverages, and because maritime law is particular, you will need coverages that are designed for those exposures. Longshore and harbor workers’ coverage and Jones Act coverage (for the yacht’s crew) are included and important, because your losses in these areas could run into six figures. P&I will cover any judgements against you and also pays for your defense in admiralty courts .

The Differences between Boat & Yacht Insurance

When you look at a boat insurance policy, you'll notice the language is unlike your typical homeowner's or auto policy. What you may not know is that vessel insurance can even vary from policy to policy, depending on a variety of factors.

Yachts are classified as vessels 27 feet or more in length, while boats are 26 feet or less. No matter what type of vessel you have, when it comes to the type of policy, seek out Agreed Value. Agreed Value policies are cover all damages, except for sails, outboard motors, canvas covers, cushions or other specified items. They do not reflect depreciation or market value, which means you will get a greater settlement in the event of a claim. Other policies such as Actual Cash Value may be cheaper, but they also factor in depreciation and market value and will subtract that from your payout.

Also, when it comes to navigation limit, boat and yacht insurance policies can vary due to different exposures. For example, a boat policy typically includes unlimited overland transportation on a trailer, while a larger yacht policy would restrict overland trailering to only several hundred miles.

Deductible amounts can also differ. A yacht policy can offer deductibles of up to 3 percent for any hull damage. However, deductibles for a total loss, marine electronics loss or a windstorm loss can vary depending on your particular policy. By contrast, a boat policy offers a flat deductible, typically of $250, $500 or $1,000.

Because yachts inherently incur more risk due to their size and navigation, the liability feature of yacht insurance provides broad coverage designed to shield you from the effects of the maritime law. Your coverage is much broader than with a typical watercraft liability policy, and offers protection to permissive users, captain and crew liabilities, along with the Jones Act, a federal law that allows a seaman who gets injured on the job to bring a suit for damages against his or her employer.

Besides, yacht insurance addresses salvage to a damaged yacht, legal liability to remove a sunken wreck and uninsured boater coverages. In a typical boat policy, only general liability protection is included. For example, if your boat sinks in the Great Lakes or any of its tributaries, the U.S. Coast Guard says it must be raised. There will be salvage costs, fuel clean-up - and you'll have to pay the bill regardless of your coverage.

While most yacht policies provide salvage coverage, they do so in different ways. Some choose to limit the dollar coverage to a stated amount or percentage of the hull amount.

Another very important part of the salvage issue is wreck removal. Some companies include wreck removal under their hull coverage, which then limits its value. A true yacht policy will include it under the protection and indemnity limit, which will provide much higher limits and additional coverage.

Get Your Insurance Quote

Another difference is that in yacht policies, your legal defense is in addition to protection and indemnity limits, while boat policies offer legal defense within the limit of liability.

Yacht policies have warranties, including the seaworthiness, navigation limits territories and navigation lay-up limits. While some boat policies do not require warranties, others may incorporate them.

Many boaters consider adding their vessels to their homeowner's insurance in an attempt to reduce their costs. Although the cost is substantially less when you add a boat to a homeowner's policy, but you don't get near the coverage. In this case, the old adage still holds true - you get what you pay for. The bottom line is not the amount of your policy premium, but how much you will collect at the time of loss.

Yacht Insurance: A Complete Owner’s Guide

Michael Castorino Articles

Yacht insurance, also known as boat insurance, is a type of insurance that provides coverage for yachts or boats against potential risks or damages. Yacht insurance policies can protect yacht owners from financial losses associated with accidents, damage, theft, liability claims, and other unforeseen events that can occur while the yacht is in use or at rest.

Here are some key things you need to know about yacht insurance:

Yacht insurance policies typically cover a wide range of risks, including damage to the yacht, theft, vandalism, liability claims, medical payments, and more. The coverage may vary depending on the policy, so it’s important to carefully review the policy and understand what is covered and what is not. Yacht insurance policies typically offer different types of coverage, including:

• Hull coverage: This covers damages to the yacht’s hull, machinery, and equipment caused by accidents, collisions, or other covered events.
• Liability coverage: This provides protection if the yacht owner is found legally responsible for causing damage to another person’s property or injuring another person while operating the yacht.
• Medical payments coverage: This covers medical expenses for injuries sustained by the yacht owner, passengers, or crew while on board the yacht.
• Uninsured/underinsured boater coverage: This provides coverage if the yacht owner is involved in an accident with another boater who does not have insurance or has inadequate insurance.
• Personal property coverage: This covers personal belongings, such as electronics, furniture, and other items on board the yacht.
• Towing and assistance coverage: This covers the cost of towing and emergency assistance in case the yacht becomes disabled or stranded.

Coverage Limits

Yacht insurance policies typically have coverage limits, which are the maximum amount the insurance company will pay in case of a covered loss. It’s important to review and understand the coverage limits in your policy to ensure that you have adequate coverage to protect your yacht and assets.

The cost of yacht insurance premiums may vary depending on various factors, including the value and size of the yacht, its intended use, cruising area, the yacht owner’s experience, boating history, and the coverage options chosen. Higher-value yachts or those used for racing or cruising in remote areas may typically have higher premiums.

Deductibles

Yacht insurance policies may also include deductibles, which are the amount that the yacht owner is responsible for paying out of pocket before the insurance coverage kicks in. Higher deductibles may result in lower premiums, but it’s important to choose a deductible that you can comfortably afford in case of a claim.

Navigation Limits

Yacht insurance policies may have navigation limits, which are geographic areas where the yacht is covered to operate. It’s crucial to understand and adhere to these navigation limits as operating the yacht outside of the covered areas may result in a denial of coverage in case of a claim. 

Additional Coverage

Yacht owners may have the option to add additional coverage to their yacht insurance policy, such as coverage for pollution liability, wreck removal, tender or dinghy coverage, and more. It’s important to discuss your specific needs with your insurance provider to determine if any additional coverage is necessary.

Safety Measures

Insurance companies may require yacht owners to adhere to certain safety measures, such as having safety equipment on board, following navigation guidelines, and completing safety courses. Adhering to these safety measures may help lower your premiums and reduce the risk of accidents or damage.

The Conclusion

Insuring your yacht is as important as routine maintenance and repairs. Accidents can happen at any time, so it is better to have the right amount and type of coverage before you hit the open waters. If you have recently purchased your first yacht or want to become part of a like-minded community of boat enthusiasts, joining a yacht club can offer many benefits. Lighthouse Point Yacht Club is one such club that provides benefits such as storage facilities for vessels, a fuel dock, a pump-out station, detailing services, and more.

Why do you need boat insurance?

A boat insurance policy helps protect you and your boat. If you don't have a separate boat insurance policy, you're probably underinsured. This could mean paying a lot out of pocket for accidents outside your control. Many homeowners policies cover minor boating risks but don't cover your needs sufficiently due to:

• Size restrictions
• Limitations on horsepower
• Limits on damage coverage

Check out our "boating insurance explained" video and article here for more reasons why boat insurance is a smart idea.

Boat insurance can provide coverage for:

• Damage to your boat including hull, sails, equipment, and more.
• New boat replacement
• Fuel spill liability
• Liability to pay for damages and injuries you cause if you hit another boat, person, dock
• Medical coverage for you and persons in your boat.
• Wreckage removal

What types of watercraft are covered by boat insurance?

All boats aren't the same. You need to customize your boat insurance to meet your needs and provide your watercraft with the proper coverage. Here is a list of the most common types of watercrafts.

• Pontoon boats are one of the most popular inland water boats. They are a flattish boats that rely on floats to remain buoyant. Their wide and spacious area is great for many passengers to enjoy the ride.
• Personal watercraft (PWC) are powered by a water jet pump and the rider generally sits, stands, or kneels on it. There are many types of PWCs which include WaveRunners, Sea-Doos and more.
• Fishing and bass boats are designed and equipped for fishing. Most are powered by an outboard motor and are equipped with power poles, trolling motors, etc.
• Powerboats are the most popular type of boat used for cruising, watersports, and so much more.
• Sailboats are propelled partly or entirely by sails.

Thai association cautions on insurance coverage for EVs

Tokio Marine Safety Insurance temporarily suspended standard premiums.

The Thai General Insurance Association (TGIA) cautioned member insurers regarding the burgeoning electric vehicle (EV) market in the country, as reported by the Bangkok Post .

EVs pose potential challenges as some insurance companies hesitate to provide coverage, cautioned the Thai Automotive Industry Association (TAIA). 

Tokio Marine Safety Insurance recently announced a temporary suspension of its standard EV insurance premiums, opting to assess new rates on a case-by-case basis.

The move comes amid concerns over wide price fluctuations and high claim values associated with EVs. 

Insurers, grappling with significant repair costs, particularly for EV battery packs, are reevaluating their coverage strategies. 

In some cases, even minor damage to an EV's battery pack necessitates full replacement, which can account for a substantial portion of the vehicle's value.

Whilst Tokio Marine clarified that existing customers can renew policies based on their claims history, concerns remain within the industry. 

The TGIA highlighted the higher costs of EV spare parts and emphasised the complexity insurers face in setting competitive premiums.

Despite these challenges, Thailand's EV market is expanding, with many vehicles imported from China and plans for local production and export. 

The TAIA is engaging with global EV manufacturers and the TGIA to address insurance concerns and ensure the market's sustainable growth.

Meanwhile, insurers are adjusting their EV insurance criteria, including premiums and battery claim conditions, effective from June. 

This evolving landscape necessitates corresponding adjustments in auto loan practices, with considerations for higher collateral requirements and revised insurance conditions for EVs.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)

<< Previous page

Pages:  379-406

In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.

Politics latest: Cameron resigns as Sunak names shadow cabinet; Labour MPs assemble for group photo

Sir Keir Starmer has assembled his Labour MPs for a huge group photo in Westminster after the party's landslide election win. Meanwhile, Rishi Sunak has reshuffled his top team as the Tories prepare for opposition.

With the change of government, the Conservatives' controversial Rwanda migration scheme has been scrapped.

Rishi Sunak had pledged to get planes carrying asylum seekers off the tarmac by the spring, and then shifted his target date to July should he have won the general election.

Sir Keir Starmer is now in the top job, and has stressed the Rwanda scheme was "dead" on day one of his government.

We've now heard from the Rwandan government, which has reiterated it "upheld its side of the agreement, including with regard to finances".

Kigali said it "takes note" of the UK government's intention to "terminate" the agreement.

It added: "This partnership was initiated by the government of the UK in order to address the crisis of irregular migration affecting the UK — a problem of the UK, not Rwanda.

"Rwanda has fully upheld its side of the agreement, including with regard to finances, and remains committed to finding solutions to the global migration crisis, including providing safety, dignity, and opportunity to refugees and migrants who come to our country."

Sir Keir Starmer heads to Washington for a NATO summit tomorrow, and we've just had confirmation his visit will include face-to-face talks with US President Joe Biden.

The White House said Mr Biden would host the new prime minister on Wednesday.

It comes after the pair spoke on the phone on Friday evening - a clip of which was released by Number 10.

We'll continue to have updates through the night right here.

And you can scroll down the page for all the latest from the Politics Hub.

Sam Coates , our deputy political editor, has given his thoughts on the Tory shadow cabinet reshuffle which just took place (see 19.12 post).

He says it appears to come from a place of "low energy" from Rishi Sunak, who has confirmed he will shortly resign as leader.

Sam adds: "I certainly think the Tories are going to spend some time struggling to adjust to a new political tempo.

"That's what this reshuffle Rishi Sunak has just done this evening says.

"Looking at some of the heavyweights backing out like Lord Cameron, you do wonder just how much some of them are up for the fight."

But the appointment of Kemi Badenoch is one to watch.

She is now shadowing deputy prime minister Angela Rayner on the levelling-up brief - moving from business.

"That looks like a promotion - it puts her up against one of the biggest figures in the government," Sam says.

"It's the reshuffle that Rishi Sunak has essentially had to do because he has so few cards to play," he adds, as the former PM only has 121 MPs to choose from.

Peter Kyle, the science and technology secretary, is then asked if Labour has started a war on the NIMBY - which stands for "not in my backyard".

Chancellor Rachel Reeves today promised to get Britain building, with more houses and wind farms on Labour's agenda - and asking councils to review greenbelt land.

Mr Kyle says this is simply central government "using its power assertively, but respectfully, to get things moving".

"We made pledges in the election campaign and already today you're seeing them being honoured," he says.

He adds Labour wants to ensure the UK is breaking down "barriers to investment, not putting them up" as he says the previous government did.

Government an 'assertive partner' for local authorities

He disputes the suggestion central and local government "are in conflict".

"What we want to do is make sure that these are partnerships," he adds.

"There are some local authorities who want to build things but have been prevented from doing so - including onshore windfarms."

Mr Kyle says Labour will lift this block, saying the government will be an "assertive partner" helping to "get things done".

He is then asked specifically if the government would overrule local interests.

"There are powers that central government has that other parts of government don't have - and we will use those powers when it is in the national interest."

Peter Kyle, the new science and technology secretary, is now joining Sophy Ridge on the Politics Hub.

She asks if the election win - and his appointment - have sunk in yet.

Mr Kyle says it "has sunk in" in the sense "we're so deep already" - working through the weekend on a "programme for government" and "making sure we can get the right things cracking from day one".

On the other hand, he admits he "wakes up every morning thinking the previous day was a dream".

'Loving every second'

"It was just so special and so remarkable," Mr Kyle adds.

"The privilege we've been given, and I've been given, by the public and by the prime minister, is something that I take incredibly seriously.

"I am loving every second."

Rishi Sunak has announced his Conservative shadow cabinet - the first the party's had for more than 14 years.

Most of the former cabinet shadow their old roles - like James Cleverly being shadow home secretary, and Jeremy Hunt as shadow chancellor.

But there's no Lord Cameron - instead Andrew Mitchell has been appointed shadow foreign secretary.

He had been the deputy foreign secretary in the last parliament.

Richard Holden is also out as the party chairman.

And Kemi Badenoch has been moved from the business brief, instead shadowing Angela Rayner on housing and levelling up.

But it isn't clear how long these appointments will be in place, as Rishi Sunak confirmed last Friday that he will shortly resign.

The process for appointing a new Tory leader will be decided by the executive of the 1922 Committee, assisted by CCHQ.

A new chair will be elected as soon as this week, our chief political correspondent Jon Craig says.

Our economics and data editor Ed Conway is giving Sophy his view on the chancellor's speech - and one word comes to mind: boring.

He says: "It one sense it was desperately boring because the topic it covers, planning, is boring and perhaps it was intentionally boring.

"I was thinking back to 1997 when Gordon Brown, straight after the election, in that same room, announced that the Bank of England was going to be made independent.

"That was his 'big bang' moment."

However, Ed says that, this time around there is no space for this.

"This time around, I think there's an acknowledgement that it's not like you can do 'big bang' things - you need to do this kind of hard work, of execution and making things happen," he says.

"And planning is the ultimate example of that, you don't just press a button and sort it out."

Watch Ed's full analysis below:

Well, they're not hanging about, are they? 

A full cabinet, a flurry of policy announcements, a speech from the chancellor and a tour of all four nations by the prime minister. 

No time to sit in a dark room, pour a stiff drink and recover after the general election campaign. 

And to be honest, you can see why. The incoming Labour government has built almost their entire economic strategy around one thing: growth. 

If you ask them how they can possibly improve public services without putting up taxes or breaking their fiscal rules, this is the answer they give. 

No growth? Big problem

The problem is it's quite hard to get growth. You can't just click your fingers and it comes. 

And it's unpredictable - you can do all the right things, but a big international event, or a national crisis, changes everything.

So you can see why Labour aren't hanging around. Today, Rachel Reeves is pulling out all the stops to try to get growth back into the economy. 

She's bringing back housebuilding targets, overhauling the planning system, and ending the ban on onshore wind farms. 

And Labour need it to work. Without growth, they've got a big hole in their economic plans.
