    The yacht and boat liability insurance is the most important insurance for every boat owner, yacht owner or charterer. A good boat liability insurance covers personal injury, property damage, financial loss and environmental damage. Anyone who inflicts damage on a third party with his boat is liable for it in full and with all his assets.

    In contrast to car liability insurance, in which we are dealing with a strict liability, the principle of negligence applies to yacht and boat liability insurance. This means that the car owner is already liable for the possession of his vehicle. On the other hand, the owner of a boat or a yacht is always at the fault of the owner or skipper. But no rule without exceptions and also there are in the yacht and boat liability insurance.

    The purpose of the boat liability insurance is to meet legitimate claims in the event of a claim and to ward off unjustified claims. So in a sense it is also a legal protection insurance.

However, if you intend to travel abroad with your boat or yacht or to station the ship right there, talk in advance with your insurer. Some states require the conclusion of a boat insurance with minimum insurance amounts. Proof of this is provided by the insurer prior to departure.
