FAQs

I can’t get yacht insurance, can you help?

Yes, we specialise in finding yacht insurance for unusual or challenging circumstances. If you’re struggling to source cover from a standard broker or provider, simply speak to one of our experts and we’ll do everything we can to help.

To give us the best chance of insuring you, we’ll talk through every detail of your case and reach out to our network of insurance providers to negotiate your cover. We can then tailor your insurance to your unique needs to create a custom policy.

What counts as a ‘specialist’ risk?

Any type of risk that falls outside of ‘standard’ policy wording may be counted as specialist. The more complex your circumstances, the more likely you are to need insurance that’s negotiated and tailored to your precise needs. For example, if you’re planning a bluewater cruise around the world for several years, you will need specialist cover to take into account the range of territories and the timeframe of your plans; or if you have an exceptionally valuable vessel that you want to charter, this might call for specialist cover. We also help find marine trade insurance too, depending on your line of business.

In short, any risk that cannot be covered by an ‘off-the-shelf’ style policy from a standard broker or provider is likely to need the specialist attention and custom insurance we provide.

How much does specialist marine insurance cost?

As every policy is unique, every cost is different. The price of your quote will depend on factors such as the vessel itself, and how and where you plan to use her, from personal use to charter use. For more information, please speak to one of our specialist crew who will be able to help.

Do you insure racing yachts?

As every case we get is slightly different we would have to say ‘it depends’. The market is a tough place for finding the right cover for racing yachts but you can rest assured, we know the right people to go to. For more information, please speak to one of our specialist advisers who will be able to help.

What happens if I need to claim?

In the event of a claim, you need to let us know as soon as you can. Please speak to us during office hours, and we will be able to help.
