BoatersOS for Marine Insurance Partners




In the ever-evolving world of marine insurance, staying ahead of the curve is not just an advantage; it's a necessity. That's where BoatersOS comes in, offering a revolutionary way for insurance partners to streamline their operations, enhance customer satisfaction, and reduce risks.



The Unique Advantage of BoatersOS in Marine Insurance


BoatersOS transcends the role of a mere digital application; it's a tailor-made, comprehensive solution crafted for the nuances of the marine industry. The integration of BoatersOS allows insurance companies to delve into richly detailed maintenance and usage histories of vessels, transforming claim assessment into a process marked by precision and efficiency.


Our founder, Spike, isn't just an innovator; he's a veteran in navigating the turbulent waters of insurance claims. He's been there, offering a guiding hand to boat owners in their times of acute distress – whether it’s dealing with raccoon damage, vandalism, sinking, mold abatement, or fire damage recovery.


Imagine if BoatersOS had been part of these scenarios. It would have played a pivotal role in cataloging damages, documenting the remediation process, and meticulously crafting a digital twin for ongoing monitoring and maintenance.


Our groundbreaking task management system is more than a feature; it's a proactive safeguard. It empowers boat owners to take charge, mitigating risks and curtailing the potential for system, equipment, and environmental failures that could lead to unnecessary claims. With BoatersOS, foresight and prevention are the new norms in marine insurance.


Key Benefits for Insurance Partners


  1. Enhanced Risk Assessment: With access to a boat's complete maintenance record, insurers can accurately assess the risk, leading to more informed policy pricing and underwriting decisions.

  2. Streamlined Claims Processing: In the event of a claim, the detailed history provided by BoatersOS simplifies and speeds up the claim processing, ensuring a smoother experience for both the insurer and the insured.

  3. Fraud Reduction: The precise and comprehensive data from BoatersOS makes it easier to detect discrepancies and potential fraud, safeguarding insurers against false claims.

  4. Customer Satisfaction: Policyholders appreciate transparency and efficiency. BoatersOS enhances customer trust and satisfaction, which is crucial in the competitive insurance market.

  5. Market Insight: The aggregated data from BoatersOS can provide valuable insights into market trends and customer behavior, aiding in strategic planning and innovation.





Case Studies and Success Stories


  • Case of Sudden Engine Failure: A yacht with BoatersOS has a detailed log of engine maintenance, enabling quick insurance claims processing, while a yacht without BoatersOS faces delays due to unclear maintenance records.

  • Storm Damage Analysis: After a severe storm, a boat with BoatersOS easily demonstrates regular hull inspections and repairs, streamlining the insurance claim. In contrast, a boat without such a system struggles to prove its pre-storm condition.

  • Theft and Recovery: A BoatersOS-equipped boat has GPS tracking and usage logs, aiding in quick recovery and insurance processing. A non-equipped boat lacks these detailed records, complicating the claim process.

  • Fire Incident Response: In a fire incident, the BoatersOS boat shows a history of electrical system checks, simplifying the insurance investigation. The comparison boat faces challenges due to inadequate maintenance documentation.

  • Collision and Repair Tracking: Post-collision, the BoatersOS system provides a full history of damages and repairs, making the insurance assessment straightforward. The other boat's lack of detailed records leads to a prolonged investigation.

  • Equipment Failure on Open Water: A boat with BoatersOS records all equipment checks, proving regular maintenance and expediting insurance support. The non-BoatersOS boat’s claim is delayed due to uncertain maintenance history.

  • Vandalism Case: The comprehensive log in BoatersOS helps in quickly assessing and claiming vandalism damages. The boat without such a system faces difficulties in proving the extent of vandalism for insurance purposes.

  • Age-Related Wear and Tear: BoatersOS’s detailed service records help in distinguishing age-related issues from neglect, aiding in fair insurance assessments. The other boat's lack of records leads to potential disputes over claim amounts.

  • Environmental Damage Claim: A BoatersOS-enabled boat can provide precise data on location and conditions during an environmental damage incident, facilitating a smoother claim process. A boat without this system has less evidence to support its claim.

  • Resale Value Dispute: When reselling, the BoatersOS boat’s well-documented maintenance history assures the buyer and insurance of its condition, enhancing its value. The non-BoatersOS boat’s unclear history affects its resale value and insurance evaluation.

Morning Shane,


Hope you are well.


I can definitely see the benefit for insurers. Would you look to have the insurer require them to register with this program in order to get insurance on the boat? Might be something they start out recommending for streamlining the claims process for insureds. I am not overly familiar with marine insurance, but I could show this to a couple of claims executives to see what their thoughts are. As I am sure you are aware, there are a couple insurers that do most of the boat insurance, but most of the insurers have some product offerings for boats. Let me know if you are okay with me sharing for feedback.

The purpose of BoatersOS is to drive proactive maintenance and relieve pressure on service providers.


It comes to mind that as a first responders to many claims that a service history on these vessels would be extremely valuable to insurance companies and quick reference for adjusters.


Going into boat show season to extend this conversation and YES it would be an exceptional kindness if you could share with any contact BoatersOS could benefit.

Hi Shane,


Right now insurance in all sectors is increasing 20-30% due to the economy. I would say get a broker that is willing to shop and fight for the consumer. They can do this through analytics which would strengthen the overall TCOR (total cost of risk). Ultimately the companies EMOD (Estimated cost over deductible) is the main reason for pricing. Things a broker should be relying upon:


1. 3-5 year history of loss that is over deductible. This is crucial- if you are over deductible year over year there is no chance in prime pricing. If you are under deductible showing a decrease in usage year or year is important for the pre ious 3-5 years.

2. Frequency of…
