Marine insurance is an insurance policy that covers damage and loss of cargo goods being transported through the water as well as damage to one’s own waterborne equipment or to others.
It does not matter whether you own your own vessels, or just transport cargo from New Zealand to other countries or within New Zealand, marine insurance is essential to protect your vessel, equipment and your investment.
If you are someone that owns just a small boat to go fishing with your mates, there is another kind of marine insurance available called pleasure craft insurance.
