Inland marine policies cover any item that is mobile in nature or transported for business. These items may not be covered under your business property insurance if they are off-site, so inland marine floaters are used to guard against this risk.
Contrary to what its name implies, inland marine coverage is not boating insurance. The term originates from early shipping days when merchants, who relied on bodies of water for transportation, need protection for their goods. Now, transportation uses a variety of systems over land, rails and air, but the original term still applies. The term floater is used in insurance to refer to a policy that covers gaps or extends coverage of other policies.
Sometimes claims exceed the maximum coverage limits of insurance plans. Don’t find yourself with empty pockets – extend your coverage with an umbrella policy.
