Boat Protection for Boat Shipments
Protect your boat during international shipping with our Cargo Damage Protection. This coverage protects your boat from its arrival at our warehouses in the USA until delivery in the main ports through our trusted agents.
Most standard insurance policies do not cover international shipments between the USA and the rest of the world. If you decline Cargo Damage Protection, please note that our liability is limited to $500 according to the Maritime Cargo Transport Law.
