Dinghy Insurance

While it may seem that dinghies are unlikely to cause a major accident, insurance is still an important factor to consider.

Every year thousands of dinghy accidents cause expensive damage to crafts and without insurance, you could be liable for the cost of repairs to all vessels involved.

If you intend to race your dinghy, then most clubs will insist that you have the appropriate dinghy insurance in place, as contact with other boats is almost inevitable at some point.

Dinghy Insurance Premiums start from £20 per year for a small single-hander.
