Insurance special: Everything you need to know about the right insurance for your yacht

What insurance do you need for your yacht? What is the right behaviour in the event of a claim? And what is important in the small print? We provide the answers

As we all know, the best insurance is the one you don't need. And: How good an insurance policy really is only becomes apparent in the event of a claim. Both also apply to sailing.

Nobody likes to deal with the subject. Especially not when it comes to the hobby. After all, there are experts for that. That's right! Nevertheless, every sailor, whether owner or charterer, should invest a little time and effort to ensure that they, their loved ones and, of course, their boat are properly insured when sailing. After all, nobody is immune to accidents.
