Assist Insurance Services Ltd have been providing insurance to yacht owners since 2005 and have more than 41,000 policyholders throughout the UK. We understand that the cover you need depends on the type of yacht you own, which is why we offer bespoke insurance policies to suit your personal requirements. We are also constantly reviewing and developing our insurance policies, to make sure that we are continuing to meet the changing needs of our yacht owners, this is what helps us to stay ahead of the yacht insurance market. Whatever the shape or the size of yacht you own, Assist Insurance Services can provide you with the comprehensive level of cover you need to protect your investment.

Our flexible policy options means you have a choice of 3 covers:

Craft & Liability Cover

This covers damage to the craft and includes public liability. This is the most popular cover and is suitable for most boaters.

Craft Cover Only

This covers damage to your craft only and is suitable for someone who is keeping their boat permanently ashore or refurbishing the boat ashore.

Third Party Liability Cover Only

This cover gives liability only cover and excludes any damage to the craft. This is suitable for very small crafts and for someone who needs the liability cover in order to launch their craft.
