Boat insurance for all family vessels.

We have used GJW for years for yacht and teenagers dinghies. A few dinghy claims were always sorted out swiftly and to our satisfaction. When we have had to add anything to the yacht insurance the response has always been swift and effective with clear documents. Reviewed on: 24th July 2025

I have been insured with GJW for some twenty years now. they have always been very prompt in settling up with the mishaps which have occasionally occurred, a couple of broken masts and a stolen engine come to mind. This had not always been the case with previous yacht insurers. I have often recommended them to friends and acquaintances Reviewed on: 24th July 2025
