Snowmobile Insurance

When we think of auto insurance, we typically don’t think outside the box except for daily vehicles. However, you can insure your ATVs, jetskis, snowmobiles, etc. In the winter months a lot of people love to get out into the powdery mountains skiing, snowboarding, and yes, even snowmobiling. A shocking 200 people die each and 14,000 are injured each year in snowmobile accidents. So, just like with auto insurance, injuries can happen. Damage to the snowmobile can happen as well as to your snowmobile or someone else.

That said, If you or someone you know owns a snowmobile for personal or business reasons, it’s just as important to insure this type of vehicle as your car. In some states, it is required to have. It works the same way as regular auto insurance. Premiums will depend on the make and model of the snowmobile, where you live, the coverage you choose, and discounts that you may or may not be eligible for. Insurance of this type is offered as comprehensive or collision. Additional types of coverage include:

  1. Personal injury

  2. Uninsured motorists

  3. Medical payments coverage

  4. Trailer and coverage for custom parts

Aside from having a good policy for your snowmobile safe riding is a crucial component to the safety of all riders. We won’t go into detail on that in this article. Although you may not use it as often, insuring your snowmobile will give you peace of mind with that vehicle as well as your other means of transportation throughout the year.
