We're giving eligible boat owners the ability to enjoy having their boat in the most desirable locations any time of year."

Available for recreational vessels valued up to $1.2 million ($750,000 in Puerto Rico) and Lloyds of London approved, the Seawave Programme provides 24/7/365 coverage for eligible vessels.
