Your Questions Answered
Understanding Coverage for Passenger Vessel Operations
What types of insurance do ferry and passenger boat operators need?
Ferry and passenger boat operators typically need hull & machinery insurance, protection & indemnity (P&I) coverage, and passenger liability insurance. These policies cover vessel damage, crew and passenger injuries, liability claims, and pollution risks.
Does insurance cover passenger injuries on my boat?
Yes. Passenger liability insurance covers medical expenses, legal fees, and compensation for injuries that occur on board. This is essential for tour boats, charter vessels, and ferry operators, where passenger claims can result in significant financial liability.
What happens if my ferry or passenger boat is damaged in an accident?
If your vessel is damaged due to a collision, grounding, or severe weather, hull & machinery insurance covers the repair or replacement costs. Business interruption coverage can also help compensate for lost revenue while the vessel is out of service.
How does pollution liability insurance protect ferry operators?
Pollution liability insurance covers the costs of fuel spills, accidental pollution cleanup, and regulatory fines. Passenger vessels are subject to strict environmental regulations, and this coverage helps operators comply with maritime pollution laws.
Does ferry insurance cover mechanical breakdowns?
Standard hull & machinery insurance covers damage resulting from insured events, such as fires, collisions, or equipment failures due to covered risks. Additional mechanical breakdown insurance may be needed for engine failure or unexpected maintenance issues.
Can I get insurance for a fleet of passenger boats?
Yes. We offer fleet insurance options that allow ferry operators and tour companies to insure multiple vessels under one comprehensive policy, ensuring consistent protection for your entire fleet.
