Collision insurance offers protection for various types of damages resulting from collisions. This coverage not only includes damages incurred from collisions with other boats but also covers any damages caused by collisions with docks and buoys.
Additionally, collision insurance provides coverage for damages resulting from collisions with other objects.
Guaranteed Replacement Cost (may be available up to three years old for most vessels) for boat insurance is an enhanced option that goes beyond the traditional coverage. With guaranteed replacement cost, in the event of a covered claim, you will receive a brand new model of your boat, even if it costs more than the original.
The agreed value/replacement cost (available up to 15 years old for most vessels) is for a covered claim, if your boat (up to 15 years old) is a write-off, we’ll pay you the amount stated on your policy.
Actual Cash Value
For a covered claim, we’ll pay you the actual cash value of your boat at the time of loss.
The costs associated with a boating accident extend beyond repairing or replacing your boat. It’s important to also consider the potential expenses of covering damage to someone else’s property and any medical bills that may arise from injuries sustained.
Liability coverage provides financial protection if you are held responsible for causing bodily injury or property damage. However, it’s important to note that this coverage does not include any damage to your own boat.
Life insurance provides a crucial safety net, ensuring your family can maintain their financial stability and cover expenses like mortgage payments, outstanding debts, and future education costs even in your absence.

Most common Boat Insurance claims…
Claim #1: Colliding with an object in the water
Most insurance claims for scratched boat hulls or damaged propellers result from shallow water, logs, rocks, and other partially submerged objects.
Claim #2: Theft when not in the water
Theft of watercraft has always been and remains a concern. “We often see thefts that occur when the boat is left on a trailer in the driveway. Someone can pull up, hitch it up and drive away with the boat pretty quickly,” says Shawn McKone, Senior Manager in Specialty Claims at Aviva.
Boat safety resources…
It comes as no surprise that approximately 12.4 million Canadians take advantage of our diverse waterways by engaging in boating activities. Unfortunately, a concerning statistic reveals that around 40% of boaters venture out without the necessary safety equipment that is legally mandated. If you’re seeking further insights on boating safety, we have compiled a list of valuable resources to assist you.
