Default Check your boat insurance

As posted above, your boaters insurance may cover towing. This thread made me curious so I checked my policy. Included in my policy is a rider covering reimbursement for "Emergency Watercraft Towing and Labor" at $300 per incident. The cost that the rider added to the annual premium for the insurance was $17. Seems like a good deal relative to the other numbers being thrown around. Of course you would have to pay a towing company up front and then file for reimbursement from the insurer which is less convenient. I have never had to test them with claims reimbursement so I can't comment on that either. In any case, the policy is with Progressive and it was written through the J Clifton Avery agency in Wolfeboro in case anyone wants to check out your insurance options.
