Oregon Marine Insurance Savings
By successfully completing our online safe boating
course you help make Oregon waterways a safer place to boat
and you can also save on your marine insurance! Although there is no requirement for liability
insurance on boats in Oregon, most insurance companies
will reduce your boat insurance costs by 10-15% annually just for having
your Oregon Boater Education Card!
The marine insurance savings from taking your Oregon boating safety course
can really add up, especially when looked at over a 5 or 10 year period.
