Your investment. Our protection.

Why choose Burgess yacht insurance?

As an FCA-regulated company with nearly 40 years’ experience of working with the world’s leading brokers, we offer a wide range of cover types relating to yacht ownership, charter and crew. It’s an entirely personal service, tailored to you. When you need to claim, our insurance, operational and technical teams work together to manage risk, making claims easier to process. We also have a Major Claims Funding Process whereby Burgess can have large claims funded and paid to the owner - often within 48 hours - to expedite cash flow. It’s a service unique to Burgess.
