Tiki Boat Cruises: Fun or Fiasco?
Insurance for Tiki Boats
It’s the latest phenomenon to hit the water — tiki boats! They’re all the rage in Key West, Lake George, Lake Winnipesaukee, Newport Beach and Pittsburgh’s three rivers. What’s a tiki boat? It’s a floating tiki bar with barstools and a captain at the helm. And just like its counterpart on terra firma, it’s topped with plenty of straw for boatloads of shade and boasts a wraparound bar stocked with alcohol and a blaring music system. Some tike cruises cater to families, others to millennials, and just about anyone who wants to cruise in style. For both individuals and businesses, our customized liability insurance for tiki boats will be the only thing to keep the party going in case of an accident.
Although new to the waters, charter boat services and tours are now available on tiki boats. Boat enthusiasts are even getting in on the action and building their own personal tiki boat. But owner beware! There are built in hazards just like any boat. What if it topples or a passenger falls into the water, or it slams into the dock or another boat? Add alcohol to the equation and you could find yourself at the other end of a lawsuit. The only way to protect yourself — and your passengers — is with specialty liability insurance from XINSURANCE.
