Frequently Asked Questions for Boat / Pleasure Craft Insurance

Can I obtain an Agreed Value Policy?

Yes— we will discuss the various cover options available under the policy. You may need to provide us with a valuation from a Marine specialist/valuer in order for the Insurer to agree to the nominated value.

I found a really cheap quote online, why is it so cheap?

Insurance is like any other product, you pay for what you get. There are many different insurers offering policies in different shapes and forms.

Service is extremely important.

This is the difference between a claim being paid out over night and a claim being paid out painstakingly over a year. Cheap premiums are on offer because costs are being cut elsewhere.

Coverage is also extremely important.

This is the difference between your claim being paid out or not paid out at all. Quite often, this results in financial burden in the long run.

Am I entitled to a discount if I have not had any claims in the past for my boat?

Yes— this works in a similar manner to motor vehicle policies, and the no claim bonus discount works as follows:

• Rate 1 – you will receive a 25% discount

• Rate 2 – you will receive a 20%  discount

• Rate 3 – you will receive a 15% discount

• Rate 4 – you will receive a 10% discount

• Rate 5 – no discount will apply

Can I pay my premiums by the month?

Yes. All insurance offered by Austbrokers Comsure can be paid by the month through premium funders. If you chose to use the premium funder’s service, your monthly installments will be tax deductible.

Where is my Boat covered?

The Geographical limits includes cover for your boat whilst it is stored on land or is in transit on a trailer.

Cover will extend to include waters up to 250 nautical miles off the Australian Mainland and Tasmania, and the New Zealand North and South Islands (subject to the policy terms and conditions).

We will discuss the options with you to determine what type of cover and the locations you need cover.

How do I make a claim?

As your Adviser, you will always contact Austbrokers Comsure in the first instance and we will guide you through the claims process as this can vary from insurer to insurer.
