What is Marine Hull Insurance?

Marine hull insurance provides material damage cover for commercial vessels engaged in harbour, inland, and coastal operations. It can also be extended to cover damage to machinery, third party liability to passengers or other people's property, and loss of earnings. 

Do I need Hull Insurance?

Hull insurance is suited to commercial vessels around the country operating in the transport, tourism, or infrastructure industries, however large or small your vessel, whether it's a small family-run business, a rowing club, or part of a larger fleet.
