Are Insurance Companies Pushing Older Sailors Off the Water?

Are insurance companies pushing older sailors off the water? In this Practical Sailor investigation, we look at whether age can affect sailboat insurance, how marine insurance companies evaluate older boaters, and whether there is any real evidence that sailors are being denied coverage simply because of their age. We also break down how to get sailboat insurance, how to insure an older sailboat, what insurance companies look for in a marine survey, and why the age and condition of your boat may matter more than the age of the skipper. If you're wondering “am I too old to sail?”, “can seniors get boat insurance?”, “why was my sailboat insurance denied?”, or “how do I insure a 30- or 40-year-old sailboat?”, this video separates the facts from the rumors. #SailboatInsurance #BoatInsurance #Sailing #OlderSailors #MarineInsurance #PracticalSailor Practical Sailor is your trusted resource for reviews of sailboats and sailing gear. https://www.practical-sailor.com Chat with us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/PracticalSailor/
