Rising insurance rates

Insurance premiums. While this topic may not be top of mind, you’ll get a reminder when your premium comes due. Home and auto insurance rates are on the rise. Why is this happening—and perhaps more importantly, what can the average consumer do?

Investing in enjoyment? It’s a great idea—if you carry the proper coverage!

Investing in enjoyment? It’s a great idea—if you carry the proper coverage!
Share

Life is full of priorities. Between professional responsibilities and your personal life, you’re pulled in many directions. Make sure your pursuit of a life well-lived includes following passions that bring you enjoyment.

For some, that includes thrill-seeking. Do you dream of taking to the open water for cruising, skiing and wakeboarding? If you’ve taken that leap into watercraft ownership, or you’re on the verge, don’t forget to protect that investment in enjoyment with the proper insurance coverage.

“It is better to be always prepared than to suffer once.” – Latin Proverb

Through our Credit Union Insurance Agency (CUIA), * we’re proud to offer a full range of insurance options, including boat coverage. Available plans feature four different settlement options, assistance if you’re stranded out on the water, propulsion coverage in the event of a mechanical breakdown and more.

Are your pursuits keeping you on land? CUIA offers insurance options for your on-land toys as well. Motor home and travel trailer specialty benefits cover pest damage, roof protection plus, total loss replacement, vacation liability, pet injury coverage and more. For those who’ve made the open road their home, full-time residency packages are also available. If you’re taking your thrill-seeking on two wheels or off-road, you may want to consider safety riding apparel coverage. Another option covers up to $25,000 in medical payments—in case the unthinkable happens.

If adding some thrill-seeking enjoyment is on your to-do list, do your homework first. And make sure you’re protecting your new asset by turning to the professionals at CUIA—they’re independent, trained insurance agents—to discuss your needs and construct a policy that’s right for you.

Explore coverage options for open water and open road vehicles.
