I've got a rider on my home insurance that covers 2 sea kayaks.  I _think_
it's the same coverage that gets used to cover a trailered motorboat.

A while back I got a cold call from an insurance agent who wanted to give
us a quote to change companies.  He eventually got a quote to us but it
took him about 6 weeks, plus 4 or 5 calls back to us, to figure out how to 
get the sea kayaks covered.  He said he had learned a lot in the process of
getting the quote.

I saw your followup about only having renters insurance.  Ask your agent
if it would be possible to cover a motorboat under the renters insurance...
