Enjoy Your Time on the Water. We’ll Help Protect It.
Whether you own a fishing boat, pontoon, charter boat or high-performance watercraft, having the right marine insurance helps protect your investment and gives you confidence every time you head out on the water.
One thing that makes us different? Marine insurance isn’t just another policy we write, it’s an area of expertise within our agency. Our marine specialist, Capt. Paul Nowak, works with boat owners every day and understands the unique coverage needs that come with life on the water.
Marine insurance is one of those coverages where experience truly matters. That’s why we’re proud to have Paul leading this area of our agency.
Paul has specialized in marine insurance for more than 36 years, helping insure everything from marinas and charter vessels to sailing yachts, sport fishing yachts, bass boats, ski boats, pontoons, and pleasure boats.
What sets Paul apart is that his experience goes well beyond insurance. Before becoming a marine insurance specialist, he spent 10 years working at a marina, gaining hands-on experience with boat sales, rigging, repairs, and the day-to-day operations of the marine industry. That firsthand knowledge gives him a unique understanding of the risks boat owners and marinas face.
Paul is a Licensed Master, an Advanced Open Water Diver, and an avid sport fishing enthusiast. When he talks about spending time on the water, it’s because he genuinely enjoys it himself.
His commitment to the marine community extends beyond his work with customers. Paul has served as President of the Massachusetts Marine Trades Association, where he was involved in legislative advocacy for the industry, and has also served on the Connecticut River Channel Marker Committee, helping promote safe navigation along the river.
Whether you’re purchasing your first boat, upgrading to a larger vessel, or simply reviewing your current coverage, Paul will take the time to understand your needs and help you protect your time on the water because he enjoys it just as much as you do.
Marine insurance can be more specialized than many people realize. Boat size, horsepower, age, storage location, navigation territory, and how you use your boat can all affect the coverage you need. Many boat owners are surprised to learn that their homeowners policy often provides little or no coverage for their boat. A dedicated marine insurance policy can help protect your boat, your equipment, and your liability on the water.
