What types of WaveRunner and Jet-Ski insurance coverage does MEEMIC Personal Watercraft Insurance offer?

Most people don't think about it when they buy a small boat or jet ski, but there are several types of personal watercraft insurance coverage. In the event of an accident, you need the right coverage to protect yourself from property damage costs and liability. These are types of policy MEEMIC offers.

Collision helps you repair or replace your personal watercraft (PWC) if it's damaged in an accident with another boat, a harbor, or any other structure.

Comprehensive coverage  helps pay to replace or repair your boat or jet ski if it's stolen or damaged in an incident that's not a collision. Comprehensive typically covers damage from fire, vandalism or falling objects (like a tree or hail).

Medical Payments coverage, also known as MedPay coverage, pays medical expenses for you and any passengers in your vehicle who are injured during a boating accident or watercraft-related injury.

Liability coverage may prevent you from paying out of pocket for medical bills and other related costs — like loss of income — when someone is injured in an accident that you caused. It also helps with the costs of repairing or replacing another person's boat or property when you damage it in an accident.

Uninsured boater coverage helps pay for injuries people on your boat sustain from another boater who does not have insurance.
