Types of Yacht Insurance
Agreed Value Insurance
This involves the owner and the insurer agreeing on a specific value for the yacht. In the event of a claim made as a result of the vessel being declared a total loss, the agreed value is reimbursed.
Loss or Damage to Hull and Machinery
This type of insurance protects the body and machinery of your boat against total loss or physical damage due to perils of the navigable waters and other human risk factors associated with operating the vessel.
All Risk Comprehensive Insurance
Comprehensive Yacht Insurance provides cover for loss arising from all perils and incidents except those that are specifically excluded in the policy. This type of insurance offers the widest coverage range.
Market Value Insurance
This insurance pays out the actual cash value of your yacht in case of a complete loss. The compensation is usually less than the agreed value because the insurer takes into account depreciation as well as the general condition of your yacht at the time of the incident.
Third Party Insurance
This policy indemnifies the insured against bodily injury or physical damage caused to a third party by compensating for any legal liability as well as paying out for damages.

We answer some of the most commonly asked questions about Yacht Insurance.
Yacht Insurance is a type of insurance policy that provides indemnity cover on pleasure crafts, mega yachts and commercial yachts for accidental loss, damage or injury. Yacht Insurance not only safeguards your vessel, it ensures that other vessels, your passengers and anyone else you may come in contact with are adequately protected.
A Yacht Insurance Policy typically covers the following (unless specifically excluded in the policy):
-Perils of the navigable waters
-Fire, jettison, piracy, explosion and malicious acts
-Natural disasters like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or lightning
-Collision with dock or harbor equipment and accidents while loading and unloading
-Latent defects in hull or machinery
In accordance with the Maritime Code of the UAE federal government, all recreational, commercial, sports, tourism and traditional marine crafts need to be insured in the name of the owner, manager or bareboat charterer. This underwriting was endorsed to guarantee the highest levels of maritime safety and secure navigation uniformly. Failure to obtain an insurance policy for your yacht could lead to hefty fines.
The Yacht Insurance cover is typically valid only within the coastal waters of the UAE. For better coverage, you can choose the optional extended geographical area cover to go with your existing policy.
Our Yacht Insurance partners aim to provide the highest standards of fair and quick customer service. In case of an incident, refer to your policy document for the procedure and documentation required to file a claim. Additionally, you can get in touch with the claims manager through the insurer’s toll free number or email for more details on how to proceed with a claim.
