Many of us in Canby, OR enjoy taking our boats out on the water. But what happens if you plan to take your boat across the border into Canada? Do you need additional or specialized boat insurance to visit our northern neighbor? <\/p>\n

Do I Need Additional Boat Insurance If I Take My Boat To Canada? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The short answer is yes; you will likely need additional boat insurance if you take your vessel into Canadian waters. This is because Canadian waters’ rules and regulations differ from those in the US. The same applies to rental boats; if you’re renting a boat in Canada, ensure it has proper coverage since your existing policy may not apply there. <\/p>\n

What Does My Existing Policy Cover When Taking My Boat To Canada? <\/strong><\/h2>\n

Your existing policy likely won’t cover any accidents while boating in Canada. While some policies may offer limited coverage for recreational vessels operating within 25 miles of the US-Canadian border, check with Oliver Insurance before you leave. In most cases, additional coverage is recommended when taking your boat across the border—especially if you intend to stay in Canadian waters for longer than a few days. <\/p>\n
