Insurance Verification

New boat owners, as well as experienced yachters with new policies,are often requested to have a United States Coast Guard Licensed Captain sign off on the yacht owner’s vessel familiarity and operation before the new boat’s insurance policy goes into effect.

Some insurance companies require a United Coast Guard Licensed Captain on the boat from the point of purchase to home port. I will review the following areas and other to provide sign off. I can provide the training necessary to be approved.

• Must possess a basic understanding of vessel navigation
• Must possess crew and guest safety Knowledge
• Must be able to demonstrate competence in operating the vessel safely in a channel and in close quarter maneuvers
• Must know where to find and how to use the vessel’s required safety equipment
