Answering Your Biggest Questions

What You Need to Know About Protecting Your Fishing Business

  • What does commercial fishing insurance cover?

    Commercial fishing insurance typically includes hull & machinery coverage, protection & indemnity (P&I), and crew liability. It ensures that your vessel and crew are covered in the event of accidents, damage, or liability claims.

  • Is crew liability insurance required for commercial fishing boats?

    In most cases, yes. Maritime law requires vessel owners to provide proper medical care and compensation for crew injuries under the Jones Act. Without adequate coverage, you could be responsible for significant out-of-pocket costs.

  • Would Hurricanes or Tropical Storms be covered in commercial fishing boat policies?

    Yes, commercial fishing boat insurance usually covers Hurricanes and Tropical Storms. We happen to represent an insurance company that does not place a higher, separate deductible on their policies for those claims.

  • How much does commercial fishing boat insurance cost?

    Costs vary based on factors like vessel size, type of fishery, fishing location, crew size, and coverage limits. Policies are customized to your needs, so it’s best to request a quote for accurate pricing.

  • Does my policy cover pollution liability in case of an oil spill?

    Yes, we offer pollution & environmental liability coverage, which helps cover clean-up costs, fines, and legal expenses if your vessel accidentally releases fuel or other pollutants into the water.

  • Can I get insurance for multiple fishing vessels?

    Absolutely. If you operate a fleet of commercial fishing boats, we can provide multi-vessel policies to streamline your coverage and ensure consistent protection across all operations.
