Does CHECK24 provide a dedicated boat insurance comparison?

The CHECK24 boat insurance page leads to personal liability insurance. It compares watersports inclusions within those policies, rather than dedicated boat liability and hull policies. Checked on 29 September 2026.

Why personal liability cover for boats has limits

Personal liability insurance may include certain watercraft, such as rowing boats or small leisure craft. Inclusion depends on the policy. Motorboats and sailing boats may also qualify under particular conditions; limits on engine power, sail area and use can matter.

Cover for a small boat does not automatically extend to your motor yacht or sailing yacht. Such liability protection concerns third-party claims. Insured damage to your own boat requires suitable hull cover.

NauticAssure: compare boat and yacht policies from several providers

NauticAssure compares dedicated boat insurance policies from different providers. Choose liability, hull insurance or both and compare available premiums, benefits and excesses. It is the comparison approach you know from CHECK24, applied to your boat.

From small boats to large yachts

Our service extends beyond the small-craft inclusions in personal liability insurance. Whether you own an inflatable boat, a sports motorboat, a sailing boat or a large yacht, NauticAssure provides a starting point for comparing suitable boat cover.

Size alone does not determine the right policy. Value, engine power, cruising area and use also matter. Online quotes depend on providers’ acceptance criteria. For unusual boats or if the calculator returns no suitable quote, we can help personally: tell us about your boat.

How to compare several boat policies with NauticAssure

1. Enter your boat details and choose your cover

Open the boat insurance calculator and enter the requested details. Have your boat type, year of manufacture, engine power and value ready. Choose liability, hull cover or both, using the cruising area and use you actually intend.

2. Compare premiums and benefits

Review the policies available for your details. Start with your required cover, then compare premiums, excesses and benefit limits. Use the policy details and associated wording to resolve questions. A lower premium becomes meaningful when you understand the protection it buys.

3. Choose cover that suits your boat

Consider situations relevant to you: damaging another yacht while mooring, a stolen outboard or a repair to your own hull. Check how each quote treats these events. Before deciding, also review the start date, contract duration and boat details.

Use the same boat details, cruising area and required cover for each quote. If you change the excess, assess both the premium change and the amount you could have to pay after a claim.

Boat liability and hull cover: what are you insuring?

Boat liability concerns claims made against you by others. It assesses liability, pays valid claims within the insured scope and defends unjustified claims. The GDV model wording for watercraft liability describes these functions. Your actual policy wording determines your cover.

Hull insurance concerns insured damage to your own boat. Check the covered causes of loss. Limited cover lists particular events; broader policies may include accidental collision damage you cause yourself. Even all-risks cover contains exclusions. The NAMMERT hull overview provides an example of different levels of cover.

Which benefits should you compare?

Use this checklist when reviewing quotes. Refer to each policy’s details and terms to confirm what it actually includes.

Comparison pointWhat to check
Annual premiumUse the same payment frequency and scope of cover. Check surcharges and discount conditions.
Liability limitsCompare injury, property damage and financial loss limits, including limits for individual extensions.
Hull coverCheck covered events such as collision, grounding, fire or theft, and the exclusions.
ExcessHow much do you pay per claim? Are there different rules for theft, total loss or particular components?
Claim settlementCheck total-loss valuation, agreed value, current-value rules and repair deductions separately.
Cruising area and useDoes cover match your waters and activities, including any racing or rental use?
Storage and transportCheck cover ashore, during lifting and in transit, including location and time restrictions.
Equipment and additional costsCheck tenders, outboards and trailers, plus limits for salvage and wreck removal.

The ADAC product information illustrates how individual benefits can have specific conditions. Pantaenius explains agreed value and the importance of exclusions in hull cover. Use these topics as questions for your own quote.

How much will your boat insurance cost?

Calculate your premium using your own details. Typical factors include boat type, engine power, value, cruising area and required cover. The excess also matters for hull insurance. The NAMMERT cost guide explains these factors.

Compare any annual saving with the additional amount you could pay after a claim. A cheaper quote may suit you if you can accept that excess and the essential benefits are included. An advertised starting price does not replace your individual comparison.

Which details should you have ready?

  • Your boat: type, manufacturer or model, year and dimensions.
  • Engine and value: engine power, insured value and equipment to be included.
  • Your use: cruising area, mooring, winter storage and any special activities.
  • Existing cover: current insurance, previous claims and desired start date.

The exact information required depends on your cover selection and the calculator’s questions. For a rented boat, read our charter insurance guide, as the insurance needs differ from those of a boat owner.
