FAQs about Mexican boat and watercraft policies

  Mexican boat liability insurance covers your civil liability for property damage or bodily injury you might cause to third parties. It does not cover damages to your boat or watercraft, or injuries to occupants of your watercraft, but it does cover damages and injuries to other property and people.
• Why do I need Mexican boat liability insurance?
  Boats entering Mexican ports are required to carry civil liability (third party) coverage for potential damages to third parties.
