Whether you need it depends on the law and how much you&#8217;re willing to pay out of pocket in case there&#8217;s an accident. There are a few things to consider when deciding if you want boat insurance on your jet ski.<\/p>\n<h2>Legal Requirements<\/h2>\n<p>Oklahoma does not legally require that any boat or watercraft have insurance. Lenders may require comprehensive and collision insurance if you finance a watercraft. This is typically included in the financing agreement, and they can repossess the watercraft if your insurance lapses. Many marinas require liability insurance to park a watercraft there. Always double-check with marinas to ensure you meet their requirements. They can hold you liable if there&#8217;s a problem and you don&#8217;t meet the legal requirements to park your jet ski there.<\/p>\n<h2>Do You Need Insurance?<\/h2>\n<p>While it&#8217;s not legally required, boat insurance from a company like Insurance Source Solutions on your jet ski is still an excellent idea. A simple accident without insurance can cost you thousands, wiping out your savings and forcing you to make payments on a settlement for years. Medical bills for bodily injury can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. A care flight alone can cost up to $80,000. Most people don&#8217;t have that much in savings.<\/p>\n<p>Here at Insurance Source Solutions, we understand the importance of protecting yourself without paying for unnecessary coverage. Instead of trying to sell you everything we have, we&#8217;ll work with you to understand your needs and find a plan that meets them. Contact us today to learn more.
