Frequently Asked Questions

Our standard yacht insurance policy allows you to take part in any race or regatta, but does not cover for the rig unless it is damaged by collision, stranding, sinking or fire. The hull is covered, but with double excess during racing.

Your claim will be assessed on the basis of the ‘agreed value’ – the insured value stated on your policy schedule at that given time and in accordance with the terms of your policy.

Contact us as soon as possible to inform us of any changes. We’re happy to accommodate changes at any time during your year, whether that be changing contact details or an aspect of your insurance policy.

We don’t offer no claims bonus on any policy where the insured value exceeds £200,000 and/or where the boat is spending the majority of the policy period outside the boundary of UK and European waters. Nevertheless we’ll take your individual circumstances and experience into consideration to quote a competitive premium.

Because we’re committed to offering the best personal service and tailored terms, we don’t believe in automatic renewals. Instead, we’ll offer you a renewal quote about a month before your policy is due to expire, and ask you whether there have been any changes to your requirements.
