Water sports, boating and yachting can be thoroughly enjoyable pastimes, but each type of watercraft brings its own unique risks. Understanding how to best protect your clients is paramount. Broad coverage is a critical first step, particularly for owners of larger yachts. A small handful of insurance providers offer policies that can properly protect your clients and their watercraft investments.

If you receive an engagement ring or other piece of expensive jewelry on Valentine’s Day, make sure you have the necessary insurance, advised the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.). Standard homeowners and renters insurance policies include coverage for jewelry and other valuable items such as furs. However, many policies limit the dollar amount of coverage for the theft, or loss due to a covered peril, of such items-the limit is usually $1,000 to $2,000.

Sometimes a laptop is just a $500 machine. At other times, it’s a $49,000 liability. Lately, businesses have discovered that personal computing devices are more and more likely to become liabilities.
