Efficient and reasonably priced.
The price was reasonable and it was easy to set up - I’ve not had to claim though. That would be the acid test! :)

This company is a total disgrace
This company is a total disgrace. They have taken money from me to insure my boat, when I read the conditions (thankfully I did) I called them to clarify it and I got a very rude, curt man on the phone with the manners of a pig. I would say stay away at all costs!!!!! I'm away back to my Haven Knox Johnston!!

I cannot praise this company high enough. I was assisted by Alina, who went out of her way to ensure that I had the correct insurance for my motor boat. The whole process of choosing the correct insurance and guiding me through the different choices was done very smoothly and profesionally.

If you overlook your auto renewal and want to cancel contact them.
Having given Craftinsure a not so good review I was contacted by the company about my automatic reinsurance which was taken when I had overlooked cancelling.
Absolutely no problems policy cancelled and money repaid into my bank.
You can’t get better company service than that.

Slipped my mind and auto renewed. BE AWARE.
Trying at present to sell my boat. I really didn’t want to insure it as it is kept at home in a locked garage.
Checking my emails BING we’ve reinsured your boat.
I can’t be bothered to argue the toss with Craftinsure so I’ll take it on the chin. Be aware of this policy it can creep up on you unexpected.

Hello John, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.
I can see your policy is on automatic renewal which was enabled within your members area. We have attempted to contact you via telephone to advise you that you are able to cancel your renewal, as you are within your 14 day cooling off period.
If you would like to discuss this further, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at customersupport@craftinsure.com, we’re always happy to assist.
