Specialized Insurance Solutions for One-Design Sail Boats

Whether you sail for fun, race occasionally, or are pursuing an Olympic campaign, Gowrie Group's specialized one-design insurance program will meet your unique needs as a One-Design sailor. Coverage options can be customized to match your racing plans and liability needs, with options to coverages for your dolly, trailer, extra gear, multiple owners, and paid crew.  If the type of boat you own is not already an approved One-Design Program class and is 30 feet and under with an active builder and active class, we can look to add it to our list of approved classes.
