It’s hard to find anything more exhilarating than zipping across the water on a jet ski. Depending on the model, this type of personal watercraft can achieve speeds ranging from 40 to 70 mph, which ensures a thrilling adventure for any operator. No wonder they’re such a popular item for people to rent while on vacation or a weekend getaway.
While there’s no doubt that jet skis are great fun, they also pose a significant danger to operators, as well as others in the water. Because of their high speed, a jet ski accident can result in severe injuries and even death. In many cases, renters do not have extensive experience operating jet skis, which contributes to their high risk. Consequently, obtaining liability insurance can be a challenge for individuals, as well as businesses that deal in jet ski rentals.
At XINSURANCE, we provide comprehensive liability insurance solutions for the most difficult risks, including jet skis. Whether you’ve been having a hard time finding coverage or been canceled or non-renewed by your carrier, count on us to provide a plan that meets your needs. We can even help cover any gaps or exclusions in your current policy. You’ll have true peace of mind knowing that you can protect your assets if an accident or incident that causes injuries or property damage occurs.
Whether you’re an individual or an owner of a jet ski rental business, we can offer a plan that provides up to $10 million in liability insurance coverage (or up to $20 million through our reinsurance partners). The specific types of liability protection include:
Without this insurance protection, you or your business could be on the hook for thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills and property repairs or replacement. The right amount of liability coverage will reduce your risk and help to prevent a significant financial loss.
If you operate a jet ski rental service and need to provide workers’ compensation insurance, you will need to purchase an external policy, as XINSURANCE does not provide this coverage.
Examples of situations where your liability insurance should protect you include:
Also, if you loan the jet ski rental to another operator, the policy will likely cover any property damage or injuries resulting from their negligence.
