Insurance Programs

Yachting allows you to enjoy the best of the on-water lifestyle. Whether you own or are chartering, there is so much fun to be had on board a yacht, but with that fun comes liabilities. Marine insurance allows owners and charterers to cover all of the bases and protect themselves, their yachts, crews, new builds, refits and holidays against any unforeseen events that could take place. Additionally, marine insurance is available for shipyards, marinas and refit facilities to ensure peace of mind to all parties involved.

The last thing you want to do while enjoying time with family and friends aboard a yacht is stress. Yacht and charter insurance provides you with the confidence to cruise anywhere in the world without worry.
