Boat insurance questions
I don't think Puerto Rico and Guam fall under the description of "Atlantic
and Gulf coastal waters". In fact, as my policy is written, it seems I couldn't tow the boat and use it in California. I wonder if I could trailer it to a land-locked, non-tributary lake? "Dan Krueger" wrote in message ink.net... The Dry Tortugas is a US national park and, therefore, US waters. The Bahamas are not. You should have asked about Puerto Rico or Guam. I wonder what their rule book says about that, provided you can enter those areas without crossing another country's territorial waters. Next stop -- St. Croix! Dan Selective quoting follows...

The only thing that perplexes me is why they would cover me on a trip to the Dry Tortugas (100+ miles), and not to the Bahamas (approx. 50 miles from mainland US). Truth be told, I'll probably not do either unless I repower...but I sure appreciated a decent answer to the hypothetical. The cruising limits portion of the binder states: "U.S. Atlantic Coastal Waters including Florida-Atlantic and Gulf coastal and inland waters tributary thereto of the U.S. and Canada between St. John, New Brunswick and Mobile, Alabama, inclusive." So I called them and asked "how far out can I go? What is considered *coastal* waters?" The agent replied that I could go out as far as I'd like as long as I didn't enter another country's terratorial waters. |
