Navigational equipment is susceptible to theft and damage, particularly if it’s visible or uncovered when your boat is unattended. It’s advisable to seek insurance protection to cover the cost of repairing or replacing the essential equipment.
Usage of Navigational Equipment
The navigational equipment you use is crucial in ensuring your safety while operating your boat and guiding you during each boating excursion.
Consider how frequently you use the equipment and how challenging it would be to operate your boat without it.
If losing one or more navigational devices would hinder your ability to use your boat as usual, consider adding the navigational equipment to your existing boat insurance policy.
Storage for the Equipment
Do you have a secure place to store navigational equipment when not used? If not, you might want to devise a storage plan to protect the equipment.
If any of the equipment is installed on your boat, covering it when not in use can reduce the risk of damage or theft.
When you’re ready to add the navigational equipment to your insurance policy, be prepared to provide information about how you plan to use and store it.
Also, have the model number for each piece of equipment ready. This information could influence how your boat insurance policy is prepared.
