RIB insurance
Why insure your RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) with us?
Our RIB insurance has been designed to protect your RIB against theft, accidental damage, malicious damage and salvage charges.
You’ll know that on the water accidents can happen, particularly when the weather takes a turn for the worst or you’re hitting high speeds. There’s always the chance you could damage another boat or perhaps injure a swimmer. With up to £3 million Third Party Liability included as standard, you’ll be covered if you cause damage to another boat, someone else’s property or injure another person – because it’s essential you can cover compensation claims that might be heading your way. With a RIB insurance policy, you can also add on optional extras you require, including Road Transit cover which will ensure that you’re covered against accidental damage caused to your RIB whilst in transit.

What does RIB insurance cover?
We know RIBs come in all kinds of shapes and sizes, so we don’t put a limit on that. But RIB insurance will cover your boat up to a maximum speed of 50 knots. Your RIB is also covered if it’s moored at the following; marinas, ashore, pontoon and swing, trot or pile. As previously stated, it also covers your boat for theft, damage and salvage charges, as well as protecting your liability for damages caused by your RIB to someone else’s boat, property or person. With our RIB insurance, you’ll never feel deflated if the worst was to happen.
How much is RIB insurance?
The cost of your Rigid Inflatable Boat insurance will depend on a number of different variables including; the type of cover you opt for, the speed (in knots) of your RIB, the value of your RIB, the age of your boat, your usual mooring location and type and your age, marine experience and marine claims history.
