Marina operations combine real estate, retail, service, and maritime exposures. Comprehensive marina coverage addresses these diverse risks:
Covers docks, piers, bulkheads, buildings, and fixed equipment against fire, storm, and other covered perils. Addresses the unique exposures of waterfront infrastructure.
Comprehensive general liability for slip-and-fall injuries, product liability, and other premises claims. Addresses the diverse activities occurring at marina facilities.
Maritime liability coverage for waterborne operations including fuel delivery, vessel moving, and launch/haul services. Essential for active marina operations.
Covers damage to customer boats while stored, serviced, or handled by the marina. Addresses your responsibility for vessels in your care.
Covers cleanup costs and liability for fuel spills and other marina pollution. Addresses both storage facilities and fueling operations.
Covers lost revenue when covered property damage forces marina closure. Protects against the financial impact of dock damage, storm destruction, or other covered losses.
Featured insurance partners:
Eastern North Carolina's coastal geography creates both opportunity and risk for marina operators. Understanding regional factors ensures proper coverage:
Coastal marinas face significant tropical storm risk. Coverage should address named storm damage to facilities and vessels, plus business income during extended recovery periods.
Fixed and floating docks face different tidal exposures. Coverage should reflect your specific dock types and the tidal ranges at your location.
Marina revenue often concentrates in peak boating season. Business income coverage should reflect seasonal revenue patterns to ensure adequate protection.
Coastal marinas operate under strict environmental oversight. Pollution coverage should address regulatory requirements and cleanup standards for your location.
Docks, piers, and waterfront infrastructure require specialized valuation. We ensure your property coverage reflects actual replacement costs including marine construction.
Care, custody, and control coverage must reflect the values of boats you handle. We analyze your customer base to recommend appropriate limits.
Repair services, fuel sales, and vessel handling each create specific exposures. We ensure coverage addresses all your marina's service offerings.
Marina agreements with customers and landlords affect insurance requirements. We review contracts to ensure coverage meets your obligations.
Marina loss prevention can reduce claims and premiums. We identify improvements in storage procedures, fuel handling, and facility maintenance.
Marina claims often involve multiple parties and coverage types. We advocate for comprehensive claim handling across all applicable policies.
