One of the joys of owning a boat is being able to travel around to different places and explore new towns and countryside. We've put together some of our favourite harbour walks so you can moor up and take in the sights at a new location.
To make sure a trailer is secure whilst carrying your dinghy we ask you to ensure that a wheel clamp or hitch lock is fitted to the trailer whilst it is unattended. Not only does it help to deter theft of your dinghy and trailer, it also means your insurance will still be valid if the worst does happen.
You can add legal expenses cover to your policy for £5 including insurance premium tax by checking the box as you go through your quotation, alternatively contact us and speak to an adviser to add it to your policy at any time.
If you don't race at all we suggest that our Bronze cover would be most suitable for you as it provides cover for your dinghy without cover for racing events. It also has a lower premium.
Whether you buy online or over the phone with our helpful team, you can pay by debit card or credit card. If you choose to pay by credit card there is an additional charge and there is no option to pay by direct debit for this policy.
We are active within the sailing community supporting various class associations involved in national Championships.
If you would prefer to spread the cost of your policy you have the option of setting up a Direct Debit to pay your premium in equal monthly instalments through our preferred provider, Premium Credit Limited (PCL).
To find out more about PCL and direct debit payments, select Direct Debit.
