Markel Names Boat Fix Named Official Tracking Partner

Boat Fix, a recreational boating telematics company that provides a combination of remote monitoring, GPS tracking, sophisticated geofencing, and 24/7 live customer support, announced it has been selected as an approved tracking provider for Markel® policyholders. Under the collaboration, all new boat rental customers insured by Markel may subscribe to the Boat Fix service and will receive its monitoring and tracking device at no additional cost as well as premium savings. Rental fleet policyholders that have already installed the device and subscribed to Boat Fix services may be eligible for a discount at renewal. These savings may also be available for boat club fleets.

The Boat Fix system provides 24/7/365 remote monitoring of all vital functions of a boat—such as battery, bilge pump, shore power, and engine hours. Sophisticated GPS tracking and geo-fencing provides industry-leading anti-theft and unauthorized use solutions. If a problem occurs, an alert is immediately sent to a Boat Fix 24/7 Advisor, as well as the Boat Fix phone app where end users can see exactly what is happening. Additionally, Boat Fix provides free and unlimited 24/7 telephone support for all technical and mechanical problems. Boat Fix mechanics are immediately available around the clock to help with engine problems over the phone.
