It is peak boating season in Connecticut, which typically runs from May to October. The Connecticut Insurance Department published a notice informing consumers of a potential premium discount for motorboat owners used for recreational purposes.
The Department cites CT Gen Stat § 38a-684 which states that any insurer who issues a policy in Connecticut that provides coverage for a motorboat used for recreational purposes and is powered by a motor of at least 5 horsepower must allow a rate credit when the principal operator submits proof of completion of a safe boat handling course. The course must be approved by the Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection. The credit awarded should not be less than 5 percent of the premium.
