Best Answer

Liability provides coverage for claims or losses in which you can be held liable for damages or in which you have been accused of being responsible.

Comprehensive coverage would also provide coverage for other aspects of your business, such as property, inventory, business autos and equipment, cash flow, etc..

I think you might be confusing terms.

Marine liability can be written to cover the liability from marine operations like operating cargo ships, etc. There is also hull liability (property for the marine vessels). General liability is a broader more expansive term and the policies can be written to include or exclude tons of different types of coverages, but you won't find liability coverage for marine vessels inside general liability insurance. Work with a broker to understand your risk and get the right insurance in place.

Did commercial general liability insurance replace comprehensive general liability insurance?

There is no such thing as a "comprehensive" general liability policy. It is "commercial" to differentiate it from personal-lines coverage. It is commercial general liability policy, or CGL; a generally standard group of coverages, exclusions, limits. This is different than a manafest policy where commercial coverages are added in a customized fashion. A comprehensive policy would be one where a business owner (BOP) might purchase with a pre-set group of coverages, exclusions, and limits. Thanks Actually, the term "Comprehensive General Liability" was replaced in 1986 with the term "Commercial General Liability." They are essentially the same policies.
