The Ultimate Guide to Center Console Insurance

 

Center console boats are ideal for fishing in all types of water. The deep-V hull provides stability in rough waters and when encountering large waves. They have level decks, insulated fish coolers, live wells, rod holders, and multiple storage areas – making a center console design perfect for avid anglers.

Center Console Maintenance

Owning a boat definitely comes with certain responsibilities and costs in terms of upkeep and maintenance. Luckily, center console maintenance is on the lower side. Unlike traditional fishing boats, center consoles have fiberglass hulls and non-skid decking. This allows for easy cleaning post-use. Most manufacturers recommend using simple soap and water.

Center Console Protections

This does not discount the fact that accidents happen, regardless of the time and effort put toward maintenance. It’s no secret that these related incidents (fire, theft, vandalism, collision) can get very expensive and the cost of repair can be more than expected. Not to freak you out; we know unforeseen bills are scary and stressful.

However, we do have a solution. A comprehensive center console insurance policy could be the difference between getting stuck with a large bill versus not. Make an insurance policy your first investment after the vessel itself. A standard center console insurance policy will help cover the costs for “all risks”, aka fire, theft, and collision. Coverage can also include agreed value, towing and roadside assistance, protection and indemnity coverage for bodily injury and property damage to others, and more.
