Marine Insurance
Maryland - the land of succulent crab cakes, Terrapins, fresh seafood, and of course, boating in the Chesapeake.
- Hurricanes and other named windstorms, although less common than in other southern states, do occur in Maryland. Be sure your vessel is protected from both hurricanes and Nor'easters.
- A separate windstorm deductible may apply in the event your vessel is damaged in a hurricane.
- Ice and freezing damage is a big concern in the area. Check your policy to make sure damage from this peril is covered.
- In some cases, damage from ice and freezing may be excluded if your vessel is not properly winterized
- A credit may apply if your boat is laid-up for the winter months. The longer the layup, the greater the credit.
- Be sure to check your navigation limits. Some policies restrict boating to inland lakes and rivers only, while others may restrict your navigation only to the Chesapeake Bay. If you plan to travel outside this area, check your policy before you set out. Navigation extensions can be added to suit your needs.
