About Visicover's Paddleboard Insurance
Whether you just enjoy leisurely paddling or love competitive racing, getting the right type of paddleboard insurance is important.
Not everybody’s insurance requirements are the same, so unlike some policies which charge you for cover whether you need it or not, at Visicover we believe you should only pay for the cover you want.
Our paddleboard insurance, winner of the 2022 'Broker Innovation of the Year Award', is designed to be flexible, letting you tailor your cover to your precise wishes. Among the options available are:
| Vessel Loss or Damage | |
| Covers the cost, up to the cover limit selected, for repair or replacement arising from physical loss or damage to your paddleboard, subject to certain specific exclusions and the excess you have chosen. * |
| Third Party Liability | |
| Covers sums, up to the cover limit selected, which you are legally liable to pay arising from ownership of the paddleboard for death or injury to a third party, or damage to their property, subject to certain specific exclusions. * |
