Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need boat insurance in West Hempstead New York?
New York does not mandate boat insurance for most recreational vessels. However, if you have a loan or keep your boat at a marina, the lender or marina may require liability coverage. It is wise to carry insurance to protect against accidents and property damage.
What types of boat insurance coverage are available in New York?
Common coverages include liability for bodily injury and property damage, physical damage for your boat, medical payments, and uninsured boater coverage. Some policies also cover towing, fuel spill liability, and personal effects. An agent can help you choose based on your vessel and usage.
How do New York boating laws affect my insurance policy?
New York requires boat operators born after May 1 1996 to have a boating safety certificate. While this does not directly affect insurance, a violation or accident history can influence your premium. Also, New York has a three-year statute of limitations for filing a lawsuit after a boating accident.
