Fort Myers boating runs from the Caloosahatchee River marinas downtown to the Gulf passes at Sanibel, Captiva and Fort Myers Beach, with a large population of cruisers and sportfishers kept at marinas like Legacy Harbour and Salty Sam's, and bay boats on lifts across Iona and McGregor. Every underwriter in the state knows what Ian did to Fort Myers Beach, and Lee County boat policies are priced and written with that in mind.
Ricardo quotes recreational boat and yacht coverage for Fort Myers owners and explains exactly what the hurricane section of the policy requires of you before the season starts — in English or Spanish.

Common questions
Does it matter which Fort Myers marina or ramp I use?
Yes. Where the boat is kept — lift, wet slip, dry stack, trailer at home — is a major rating factor and affects hurricane requirements. Tell Ricardo exactly where it lives.
What should Fort Myers boat owners know about hurricane coverage?
Read the named-storm deductible and haul-out requirements before the season starts. Some policies reimburse haul-out costs; some require a storm plan. Ricardo walks through it line by line.
Can you quote in Spanish?
Yes. Ricardo is a native Spanish speaker and quotes boat coverage in Spanish for owners across Lee County.
