Why Boat Insurance Matters 

Owning a boat in Oregon opens up a world of adventure. However, with the joys of boating come unique financial risks and responsibilities. At AIC Insurance Agency - Medford, we understand how important it is to adequately insure your watercraft; it’s why we’re here to help Medford, OR boat owners navigate the ins and outs of boat insurance.

Why Boat Insurance Matters

While Oregon does not require boat insurance by law, having the right coverage can make all the difference if the unexpected happens. Accidents, theft, vandalism and weather-related damage can all lead to costly repairs or losses. Boat insurance financially helps your investment and can offer liability coverage if you’re found responsible for injuries or property damage on the water.

Key Coverage Options for Oregon Boat Owners

Every boat and boater is different, so it’s important to choose coverage that fits your needs. Common options include:

• Physical damage coverage—Helps pay for repairs or replacement if your boat is damaged by events such as collisions, storms or fire.
• Liability coverage—Can pay for third-party costs if you’re responsible for injuries to others or damage to their property while boating.
• Uninsured or underinsured boater coverage—Covers you if you’re involved in an accident with someone who lacks adequate insurance, and is at fault.
• Personal effects coverage—Covers personal items on your boat, such as fishing gear or electronics.
