Snowmobiles can be great fun in winter, but using them comes with certain inherent risks. There are approximately 14,000 snowmobile injuries and 200 deaths each year. Snowmobile insurance won't stop accidents from happening. It may offer Massachusetts snowmobilers financial protection in the event of an accident or other covered incident, though.

  • When I called the staff at Paul T. Murphy Insurance, they explained how auto reform would allow me to increase coverage and save money at the same time. I moved my home and umbrella insurance to my current auto carrier and saved over $350. In July 2008 when my auto insurance renews with Safety Insurance, I will save another $300 just for having my auto and home insurance with the same company. The staff at Paul T Murphy Insurance Agency really understands the new Massachusetts reform and how to pass savings and additional coverage to their clients.

  • After many years of doing business with the Paul T. Murphy Insurance Agency, I am thrilled to learn of this relationship with Northrup to service the Lynnfield area. I have trusted both my personal and business policies with Paul and have never received less than the best of service. I like the face that they service as professionals but treat you like a friend. Recently during a complicated Workers Comp claim, Paul showed up to walk me through what I thought would be a mess of paperwork and confusion – the personalized service I receive spoke volumes. I have never gotten service like that from anyone else. I also like the fact that they are always ready to save me money without ever compromising my coverage.

  • One of the best business and personal decisions I ever made was to collaborate with Paul Murphy Insurance Company for our families insurance needs. Starting with our business policies, then eventually all of our personal policies, we have slowly transitioned all to be managed by PMI. Many companies loosely tout that they treat you as one of the family; PMI proves it in their actions. We are glad we are part of their family.

What Protections Does a Snowmobile Policy Make Available? 

The exact protections that a snowmobile policy offers may vary, but many policies make a variety of liability and property coverage is available. The following are some of the more common coverages that a policy could provide: 

  • Bodily Injury Liability Coverage, which might protect against injuries to people not riding a snowmobile
  • Personal Injury Protection (PIP), which might protect against injuries to people riding a snowmobile
  • Property Damage Liability Coverage, which might protect against damage caused to other people's property
  • Collision Coverage, which might protect against snowmobile damage occurring during accidents with vehicles or other snowmobiles
  • Comprehensive Coverage, which might protect against snowmobile damage occurring in an animal collision or other non-accident incident
  • Accessories Coverage, which might extend protection to a snowmobile trailer, aftermarket improvements and safety equipment
  • Underinsured and Uninsured Motorist Coverage, which protect against accidents caused by improperly insured snowmobilers and drivers

An insurance agent who specializes in snowmobile policies can explain these coverages in further detail, as well as any other protections that a policy offers.

Can Snowmobile Owners Get Roadside Assistance?

Roadside assistance is an additional benefit that's often available through snowmobile policies. The benefit normally helps cover the cost of towing should a snowmobile break down when being used. When considering this benefit, it's important to check whether a snowmobile must be on a public road in order to be towed, or can be on a trail and still get towed.

How Much Are Premiums for Snowmobile Policies? 

Premiums for snowmobile policies are usually quite affordable, even if they aren’t the same. A few factors that can impact rates include the:

  • Snowmobile’s location when not in use
  • Snowmobile’s year, make and model
  • Owner’s past claims history
  • Chosen coverages, deductibles and limits

To better determine how much premiums will be in a specific situation, snowmobile owners can talk with an independent insurance agent. Independent insurance agents aren't obligated to promote any one insurance company but can easily compare quotes from multiple companies.

Do Snowmobile Owners Need Insurance During the Summer?

Snowmobile policies frequently can be adjusted during summer. Canceling insurance altogether often isn't advisable, however. If insurance is entirely canceled, damage that occurs while a snowmobile is in storage likely won't be paid for by an insurance company. If coverages are adjusted but insurance is maintained, the damage might be paid for by an insurer.
