Getting your vessel insured in New Zealand has become ridiculously hard, and if your vessel is kept on a swing mooring, it’s almost impossible.

This situation is not only frustrating, it puts a lot of boat owners in a position where the insurer insists on a full out of the water survey before even considering providing cover, but the vessel cannot haulout for a survey because the boat yard will not lift the vessel without insurance.

Keane Specialty Insurance completely understand the concerns about payout certainty, especially when dealing with a foreign supplier.

We can assure you that all claims are supervised by an independent Loss Adjuster who adheres to the professional standards of the Chartered Institute of Loss Adjusters in order to promote complete transparency and fairness.

This ensures that each case is evaluated impartially and resolved on a reasonable and fair basis. With over 20 years of experience managing claims, including some from Australia and New Zealand, we have a streamlined procedure designed to process claims efficiently.

When necessary, local representatives are appointed to speed up assessments and communication. All claim-related funds are kept in a separate account to demonstrate our commitment to timely settlement, enabling us to make payments as soon as the final paperwork is completed.

We guarantee that every client, wherever they may be, receives dependable and consistent support because we take our responsibilities seriously and place a high value on our reputation.

Catch 22?

Yes, it is, and being a boat owner himself, the CEO of PMG, Mike, saw the need to try and remedy what is affecting many boat owners and he reached out to a Florida based insurer who is leading the way forward in this arena.

They offer coverage for a wide variety of vessels from Launches, Yachts, Classic boats, Vintage boats, Air boats, Houseboats, Catamarans, Trimarans and even Racing vessels will also be considered.
