Hi again,
Did Pantaenius give you a reason for declining? I only ask as they have a policy of not insuring boats over the age of 30 years. However, they have insured 2 of my boats over that age, one which was built in 1965 and the other in 1974. It was done as a special underwriting, but they did it. it may be something they do for existing customers I'm not sure. Is your boat over 30 years old? they have also just quoted me for my Achilles 24 which I think was made in about 1970 odd as it is number 40.
I'm not sure, but I think they offered 2006 JC insurance. Forgive me if I am wrong in this respect.
I'm only plugging them because, once insured, they really are very geared to the sailor and you can add and subtract geographical areas as you need them. There are obviously costs incurred in this.
I hope you find someone who will insure you.
Cheers,
Nicki
