Why Boat Insurance is a Necessity

Boat insurance is necessary for all boat owners who live on
or really value their boats. If it is something that you feel
you must replace then you need to insure it. If you live on
your boat it is absolutely necessary that it be insured. Who
would want to lose their home?
Also most boats are financed in the beginning. The lending
company will insist on insurance in those cases just as they
would with a house or a car. This is not unreasonable; they
have as much to lose in the financial sense as you do if anything
happens to the boat.
Some areas are more dangerous than others for boaters. While
some of those areas are famous or infamous 'the Bermuda Triangle'
and the Dardanelles others are less well known but can be
just as dangerous.
Cape Disappointment in Washington State is one of the most
dangerous areas on the seas when the conditions are right
(or wrong). You need to be just as prepared when you off the
Pacific coast of Washington and have your boat insurance in
order as you do when you are sailing from Bermuda to Florida.
While I contemplate the last half of my life; (I am getting
close to that turning point) I must make some decisions as
to what I want to do with my leisure years. I have many thoughts
in mind but one of those options that keep coming to mind
is sailing the world.
All of us need to plan for what we want. If I choose to go
sailing I will need several things of those things that I
will need if I do choose a boat insurance is the top of that
list. I might wind up in a cabin by the woods or on a beach
in the South Pacific, I am by nature a solitary person.
If that is the case I will happily spend my time sipping
iced tea and spoiling my grandchildren. If I am on a boat
I think I will see the Sargasso Sea and sail around the world
and across the equator.
