Inland Hull

Building on our experience and expert knowledge, we have developed an insurance product specifically for the Inland Hull market.
Today’s Inland Hull market is full of challenges, from fierce competition to ever-evolving regulations. 
 
When it comes to insurance, you need a partner that can keep up with a changing market and who is up to speed on the very latest rules, including for example the Strasbourg Convention 2012 on inland navigation liability. This where we come in. 
 
What is covered 
  • Hull & Machinery for all external causes, including inherent vice 
  • Protection & Indemnity, including third-party liability 
  • Legal counsel 
  • For Dutch clients we can provide cover for their legal liability as ship owners  
Special clauses 
On request, or when needed for clients’ operations, we can add special clauses to provide cover for: 
  • Specialist operations, such as workboats and dredging companies 
  • Loss of hire, provided as part of our Hull & Machinery cover 
Europe-wide wording 
Our policies and documentation are available in Dutch, English, German and French, each designed the specifics of their market. 
 
We recognise that a single policy that satisfies all European markets may not be appropriate for all clients, and some prefer to use local or domestic wordings. Our experts are familiar with local and domestic terms for hull and machinery insurance and can provide policies based on those wordings. Alternatively, we can offer separate P&I insurance using our own wording. 
 
We also underwrite shares in the subscription market, and can quote for any type of vessel, providing it is for professional use. 
 
Contact your local underwriter or claims handler 
We have dedicated teams for both underwriting and claims handling. They monitor changes as they occur and implement them when necessary, providing you with the best service possible.
