Specialized Insurance Solutions for One-Design Sail Boats
Whether you sail for fun, race occasionally, or are pursuing an Olympic campaign, our specialized one-design insurance program is designed to meet your unique needs as a sailor. This program is managed and underwritten by marine insurance professionals who understand the sailing and racing activities one-design sailors participate in at yacht clubs, sailing programs, and regattas throughout the year.
Coverage options can be tailored to match your racing plans, regatta schedule, and liability requirements, with protection available for your boat, dolly, trailer, extra gear, multiple owners, and paid crew members.
