There a big legal liability difference. "Interest" is that have a right to direct payment from your insurer.
While "additionally insured" is that the marina can make their own damage claims and seek re-imbursement under your policy. Totally bypassing your involvement. Way more potential expense to your insurer covering the marina making claims about marina damage caused by you and your boat. You are nor covering the marina and your boat on your policy. Way more $$$.
And a few more things too. Im sure those terms are defined on your 100 page policy on page 60 or 70 definitions page. LOL

New ride coming for next season and will start shopping around for another insurance company. Just tired and never have enough time to spend arguing on the phone with these people.
Who are you guys using and do you have any issue with the additionally insured” stuff? To be honest, I’m not even sure what the difference is between additionally insured and additional interest?
Just did a quick online search with Progressive and Geico. Same coverage yet Geico was almost $500 more than Progressive.
