With the skipper liability in case of damage protected
You charter a foreign sailing or motor yacht for your trip and take the responsibility on board as skipper. As a rule, the charter contract states that the chartered vessel has liability and hull insurance. Why then do you need a skipper liability insurance? We at the HKVA recommend skipper liability insurance, as this can provide important supplementary protection in the event of damage: In certain cases it can happen that the amount or scope of cover is insufficient and the boat liability or hull insurance of the charter yacht does not cover it. These risks are covered comfortably for you by our skipper liability insurance.
Damage to property and persons covered by skipper liability insurance
What does skipper insurance offer you? A whole range of convincing advantages! Loss events caused by the use of the chartered motor and sailing yacht are naturally integrated. But also the use of the dinghies by skipper and crew and a damage event to third parties is insured in a compact way. In the skipper insurance the liability claims of the accompanying crew members and the skipper are also included. In addition, the skipper's liability insurance provides comfortable protection in case of charter cancellation, confiscation, hotel and travel expenses as well as financial losses.
