Charter Lakes represents all of
the largest marine insurance underwriters in the country. We understand each
underwriters policy limitations and which underwriter is most competitive on a
particular type of vessel in a specific geographic location. We do the shopping
for you by obtaining quotes from each of the (8) underwriters we represent to
arrive at the best value for you.
What sets Charter Lakes apart from the rest of
the industry is our definition of overall value. Value means much more than
simply the best price. While price is important, the service and treatment you
receive from your agent, when you need it, can often times be even more
important.
Insurance is only as good as the service you
receive when you have a claim or need to make a change to your policy. Charter
Lakes is staffed by 35 individuals that are dedicated to providing you with
prompt and professional personal service. We believe in personal service, you
will always talk to a live person who can assist you at Charter Lakes.
Heaven forbid you have an accident
with your boat. But accidents do happen, that’s why you buy insurance. Charter
Lakes has dedicated substantial resources to develop it's own in house claims department.
Our in-house claims department is dedicated to helping you navigate through the
claims process and get your claim settled as quickly as possible. Our goal is
to have claims adjusted and paid by the time repairs can be made.
Another way Charter Lakes adds value is through
the development of special Group Insurance Programs. Charter Lakes has
developed group insurance programs for Fishing Guides, Six Passenger Charter
Boats, Coast Guard Inspected Vessels and personal use yachts and boats.
Utilizing the group insurance concept, we are able to tailor coverage to meet
the specific needs of a particular group of clients. This allows us to broaden
coverage while at the same time provide substantial premium savings. It also
allows us to focus our systems and service efforts on a specific group which
enables us to provide better service.
Do you now know that buying your marine
insurance from Charter Lakes is a wise decision?
