Skuld Yacht focuses on the Insurance needs and concerns of the Yacht Community alone. We want to be the obvious home, the first port of call for yacht owners’ insurance needs. We intend to be more than a market; we want to be the first Yacht club dedicated to insurance.
We have formed Skuld Yacht because we believe that there is a wish on the part of the Yacht Community to have its own innovative insurance provider and its own ‘think tank’ for product development. That is why we have engaged a specialist yacht team of such experience.
With the benefit of more than a century of experience as a leading P&I mutual, Skuld has developed into a world class marine insurance provider. Skuld’s global presence with offices in virtually every time zone and a dedicated Skuld Yacht team ensures outstanding and personal service for the Yacht Community.
Over the last years the club has introduced a wide range of new insurance products, offering new and beneficial synergies to our clients. Skuld Yacht is adding to that stable.

Skuld service is the most important part of the Yacht cover. In the event that a client is involved in a dispute with a third party, we will actively protect you, i.e. try to find a solution, and if, ultimately, you are found liable and suffer a loss covered under the policy, Skuld will indemnify you for your liability. Yacht insurance is cooperation, we will work with our clients side-by-side to achieve the best result – in all claims situations, to prevent claims and provide qualified advice. With our vast experience of disputes and claims all over the world and with our internal legal advisors from various backgrounds and jurisdictions we are the recognised service provider.
