In a world of uncertainty, security is a valuable asset – the right protection can go a long way. Our specialised and tailor-made boat insurance is available for the vast majority of boats and yachts. Whether you have an open boat or a cabin cruiser, something that’s brand-new or one that’s seen its fair share of use, GasanMamo Insurance can provide you with the protection the protection you need for your peace of mind at sea or on land.
Think about how much you spend on your boat. Are you protecting your investment from fire, accidents or other potential causes of damage?
What about protection in the event of an accident?
Buying the right insurance is a smart decision. GasanMamo Insurance has a comprehensive, easy to understand and competitively-priced package that’s just right for you.
Our boat insurance product is a multi-section insurance policy. It protects your boat and covers you for your liability towards others, including your passengers. The insurance protection applies while your boat is in commission or whilst it is laid up, provided that the boat is used within the cruising limits specified in the policy and for private and leisure purposes.
