‘All Risks’ Speedboat and RIB insurance is perfect if you have a small boat under 23ft in length. A speed boat is usually defined as ‘a motorboat that is built for speed’ and is ideal if you intend to water-ski, wakeboard or tow toys. A speedboat is typically has a speed in excess of 17knots and can travel up to 45 knots or even higher.
A RIB usually consists of a strong rigid frame with a tough inflatable skin that allows the weight of the vessel to be kept to a minimum. The outboard engine ensures that the RIB can travel fast over water.
Small Boat Insurance will cover the underwater machinery of the boat without necessarily increasing the policy excess.
Personal belongings can be included up to £1,000 automatically with certain underwriters for peace of mind and enjoyable cruising.
Automatic cover is given for tenders, outboard and trailers including extended road transit cover from the UK to anywhere within your cruising range.
Small Boat Insurance provides a wide cruising range of the Inland and Coastal waters of the UK including a maximum of 30 days in European Continental Waters.
