-This is an interesting question. ​ My agent says I have coverage under my homeowner'​s policy. ​ And I have a lot of boats and bikes.

-I suspect the devil is in the details. ​ Boats lost through theft or fire when stored in my garage are probably covered by my homeowner'​s insurance. ​ Boats on the car top rack damaged in a car accident might be covered by auto comp or other auto coverage.+I suspect the devil is in the details.

-I found out that my homeowners insurance only covered canoes and kayaks for a maximum of $1000 each.  I shopped around, and the several companies that I called had the same $1000 limit. ​ None of them would do any sort of supplemental policy or "​rider"​ on human powered boats, and they (apparently) couldn'​t comprehend that any canoe or kayak could be worth more than $1000. I don't know about car insurance, and what they would pay.  So it makes sense to insure boats separately. ​ As for bikes, I had one stolen from my garage a couple years ago and my homeowners paid full amount (replacement value).+I found out that my homeowners insurance only covered canoes and kayaks for a maximum of $1000 each.
