Small craft cover

We work with experienced marine underwriters to provide cover for more than 50 types of craft, including sailing dinghies, yachts, motor cruisers and narrowboats. Jet skis and other pleasure craft can also be covered, making sure your leisure time is suitably protected, along with you and your passengers. You can also get liability cover for waterskiing and towing of toys.

Your personal client manager can help you get the right level of cover for your small craft, so you can enjoy time out on the water.

SPECIALIST COVER FOR

In harbour and at sea

Our marine insurance includes a £3 million liability limit as standard, and £5 million as standard for sailing dinghies and catamarans. This means that you’re well protected in the event of an accident involving someone else’s boat.

You can also benefit from no excess on liability claims, and no claims discount protection of up to 5 years. Our small craft insurance automatically covers transit on craft up to 30ft long, and you can get optional racing cover for dinghies and yachts – so sign up for that regatta!

You’ll want to be sure that your passengers are protected, and with personal accident cover included in your policy, you can be. Accidental injury and emergency doctors’ fees if someone is injured both on the craft or getting on and off it, as well as other specific injuries, are insured under comprehensive cover. For details and to ensure you have the coverage that will give you peace of mind, give your personal client manager a call.

Narrowboats on a canal - Norton Insurance Brokers

TAILORED INSURANCE FOR

Narrowboats and barges

It’s not just sailing and motorboats we can provide small craft cover for – river-bound boats such as barges and narrowboats can also be covered with us.

It’s important to know that house boats come under a different kind of insurance, as do boats which are let for hire or charter. If you have craft with these requirements, speak with us directly and we’ll help you find the most suitable cover options for your particular needs.

GET THE RIGHT PROTECTION FOR YOUR

Watersports craft

Dinghies, jet skis, motorboats and other watersports craft can be included in small craft cover with Norton Insurance Brokers. People often don’t consider that even a set of canoes or kayaks need specific insurance! And the good news is that up to 30 days’ use in Europe is also included, if you’re taking your craft abroad. For those planning a trip away, we also provide reliable travel insurance to keep you safe while you’re away from home.

You can get optional liability cover for towing of toys, so if you’re motoring your boat in a lake or the sea with a float on the back of it, or towing waterskiers, you’ll want to make sure it’s included in your policy. Speak with your personal client manager, or contact us below if you need a quote for your craft.
