FAQs

Do I need boat insurance in New Jersey?
Requirements vary by situation (financing, marina rules, and personal risk tolerance). Many boat owners choose coverage for liability and physical damage protection.

Does my homeowners policy cover my boat?
Sometimes limited coverage applies, but it often doesn’t match what boat owners need—especially for larger boats, liability on the water, or more frequent use.

Can I insure a jet ski/PWC?
Yes—personal watercraft can be covered with policies designed for PWCs, including liability and physical damage options.
