NEW YORK, Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Ahoy!®, the digital insurance MGA for recreational boating, today announced that it is partnering with the Madison Independent Agency Network (MIAN), the leading network for independent agents.

Built by boaters for boaters, Ahoy!’s customers receive an onboard smart boat kit in addition to a tailored insurance policy, which works alongside a proprietary mobile app to offer advanced telemetry features that proactively help reduce risk and prevent damage or injury. The mobile app offers alerts such as grounding avoidance, theft recovery assistance, and micro-targeted weather alerts and forecasts, while the boat insurance policy tailored to boaters’ 21st-century needs includes a phone overboard protection policy.
