Insurance conditions
All offered yachts have Third Part Liability and Casco insurance, i.e. in the event of damage caused to the yacht by third parties and damage to the yacht that was caused by your fault. Your liability is limited to the amount of the deposit paid when you pick up the yacht.
However, yacht insurance does not cover medical expenses, events that may affect crew members, or those that occur while you are ashore. This applies to costs of treatment, rescue and transport of patients. Therefore, take care of such an important matter as crew insurance.
In addition, when booking, you can also conveniently take out insurance in the event of cancellation or interruption of the charter (REFUND) due to unfortunate events.
Cancellation Costs Insurance (REFUND)
You will receive a refund of the amount spent on charter in the event of resignation from the charter or the necessity to interrupt it due to unfortunate events affecting the insured or their relatives. The insurance is offered in two variants: 100% and 100% MAX. Both variants cover the aftermath of COVID-19.
