Boat insurance is never going to be cheap but GJW made the experience of getting good level of coverage for all the items (outboards, tender, main boat etc) at competitive rates a breeze. Being able to access all docs and quotes easily on the website is a plus. Reviewed on: 19th August 2025

Great Value, Painless Claim, Helpful People

5
Customer services are always very helpful and when I unfortunately had to make a claim it was handled very quickly and paid fully. As the whole point of insurance is to be able to recover the cost of repairs/replacement, insuring with a company that makes the process as quick and straightforward as GJW direct do is the best you could ask for. I have used them for years and will continue to do so. Reviewed on: 31st July 2025
