Do boat owner's policies cover theft?
I own a boat and am considering getting insurance on it. There have been several thefts in my area, and I'd like to make sure I'm covered if my boat is targeted. Does boat insurance cover theft?

“Frequent theft can be a serious issue; I’m sorry you’re dealing with that! Luckily, though, boat insurance provides coverage for two types of theft.
One is for the boat itself, which is under property coverage. The other is for personal effects, which covers your personal property or items like fishing equipment. While the types of coverage can vary from company to company, most boat insurance policies are fairly similar.
Since you’re concerned about theft, you’ll want to shop around with various companies to determine the best rates and coverages. By requesting quotes, you’ll be able to see how expensive coverage for theft might be.
If your home or auto insurance provider also offers boat insurance, you might be able to save money by
bundling
your policies. To get the best deal on boat insurance, check out the
