Agreed-value hull coverage pays your stated amount after a total loss instead of a depreciated figure, which usually makes sense for a sportfisher or yacht that holds value. We explain both options.

Florida does not require boat insurance, but marinas, lenders, and the river's conditions effectively make it necessary. We include named-storm haul-out coverage that helps pay to pull and secure your vessel before a hurricane.
