Velos is one of the UK’s leading marine insurance providers, and, with over 50 years of industry experience, you can be sure that you and your yacht are in safe hands.

When planning the sailing trip of a lifetime, the last thing you want to worry about is boat insurance. Insuring your yacht is a way of safeguarding your investment against risks such as fire, lightning or explosions, theft, malicious damage and vandalism while on your travels in international waters.

We work with a panel of first-class insurers to find the right Bluewater Insurance policy for your journey, tailored to both your itinerary and sailing experience; giving you peace of mind, whether you’re sailing across the Atlantic, taking your yacht round the Med, or island-hopping around the Pacific.

As an independent, family-owned business, we believe that insurance policies should come hand-in-hand with excellent customer service, and that’s why, should the worst happen, you’ll have a qualified expert from our very own, in-house team guiding you through the process from our London office.
