Boat Insurance

#1 Post by BMcD »

Have had my boat insuranced through a UK company for the last 12 years, but now brexit has kicked in I need to switch to one based here. Want to insure a Seahog Commodore with 70hp, and was wondering if anyone here could recommend any reasonable insurer's to try?

Will give Porthcawl a try thanks.
Doesn't have to be an Irish company, anywhere that can offer good value I'd be happy with if you have any recommendations thanks.

I'm afraid porthcawl are no longer operating in Ireland due to not being able to obtaining a trading agreement for financial services and insurance at this time.
