Yacht & Pleasure Craft Insurance

Specialized coverage for smoother sailing

We’ve helped yachts and pleasure crafts around the globe set sail with our underwriting expertise behind them.

We insure everything from small pleasure crafts to harder-to-place yachts almost anywhere in the world, protecting the vessels of sport fishing enthusiasts in Central America, to passionate day sailors in New England, and recreational cruisers in Italy. Taking great care to meet the varied needs of our highly valued clientele, we look for constant innovations to our approach to risk and tailoring coverage.
