MARINE HULL & MACHINERY INSURANCE

Avoid the risks of commercial shipping

Anyone who runs a business in the commercial shipping sector today should be sure to take good precautions. Especially large ships, for example the classic container ships, have a high value. If there is damage to the machinery or a damage to a part of the ship, a repair - if it is efficient at all - is usually unpleasantly costly. Anyone who has taken out a blue water hull insurance policy with a reliable partner for his shipping company within the framework of the General German Marine Insurance Conditions (ADS) benefits from first-class protection. The Hanseatische Kasko Versicherungsagentur is such a partner. This overview describes what we can offer you as one of the hand-picked underwriting agents in Germany. If you have any questions regarding franchise, replacement to third parties and other insurance conditions, our experts are of course there for you with a personal contact person.

Who benefits from a high-performance blue water insurance?

The higher the value of a ship is, the more the cost of engine damage or damage to a part of the ship is affected In the commercial sector, large ships are usually used, which are expensive to repair in the event of a hurricane or other weather influence, explosion or accident. But it is not only the repair that generates worrying scenarios for companies. It is also the failures that lead to high costs and reduce the so important customer satisfaction. A tailored blue water hull insurance with a reputable insurer is therefore something that is recommended, indeed mandatory, for every commercially active ship owner. Seaworthy means of transport also include special ships such as cranes, tugs or even dry docks.
