We were able to
get a quote from Y-Yacht because we are BVI flagged and our vessel is corporate
owned in the BVI. I also believe they will underwrite a vessel in the USVI with
a USVI address. Eric from Kimberlite has a contact who can do the address
piece. The change of port is one piece of paper filed with USCG documentation.
I also have a
really good independent broker who writes policies for Novamar USA, an “A”
rated company with a lot of recommendations from members of the OCC. The price
is the same as going to Novamar directly. However, he has a direct line to the
underwriters and can help work around some issues such as survey or age of
rigger etc. I am reluctant to post his contact info publically. Let me know if you’d
like it.
Hope this
helps.
With best
regards,

I just heard back from Y Yacht Insurance - they cannot cover US yachts at
this time, but are making enquires and hope to be able to do so next year.

All,
Suggest you read further, if interested, at yyachtinsurance
dot com, which states Barry Sullivan, who happens to own a Maramu, started
Pantaenius UK, did business as Shearlangstone, Ltd. , became Y Yacht Insurance
in 2011. Now set up Y Yacht Assurances France for post-Brexit operation. The
actual insurance and underwriting is through MS Amlin, part of MS and AD
(haven't researched them) and Y Yacht Insurance is a trading name of Y at-sign
Limited, an English company.
FWIW,
Craig Briggs, SN68 - I did ask for a quote and will let you
know what I hear.
