Skipper insurance for private skippers

Skippers who sail on boats that are chartered usually are not aware of the risks they take. Nor they are conscious of how easy it is to reduce those risks with an insurance. Having years of experience in sailing and insurance matters, we developed special insurance products that suit the needs of private skippers.

Skipper third party liability insurance It’s a subsidiary insurance that covers claims arising from damages you make to third parties. Damages to the chartered vessel caused due to gross negligence are also covered. As hull insurance of the yacht does not cover gross negligence at all, this is a key point.

Charter cancellation insurance If one of your crew members is diagnosed with a severe illness makes their participation in the trip impossible, the person in question may cancel the trip and recover their payment (deductible  20 %). This includes also an illness of next of kin. In case the skipper is unable to embark due to illness, all crew members may cancel the trip. This rule makes a big difference in comparison to other insurance products.
