Windsurfing & Boardsailing

Life insurance for Windsurfing & Boardsailing

Overview

It is not usually difficult to obtain cover for the majority of Windsurfing & Boardsailing from mainstream insurers.

There are a small number of fatalities associated with sailing and other water sports in the UK, although limited as a percentage of the number of participants, the risks of collision, drowning, falls and even lightning strike are nevertheless present.

Some forms of sailing / water sports do bring higher risk including:-

  • sailing beyond inter-coastal waters
  • competitions & racing
  • sailing alone

But, usually these types of sailing will not see all life insurers decline to offer cover unless you are older or have health problems or if you engage in these activities professionally or semi-professionally.

 

When you may need Pulse Insurance

Pulse Insurance are specialists in finding cover when other insurers decline which may be because of:-

– hazardous sports & leisure pursuits

– serious medical conditions

– higher ages

– high risk occupation

– dangerous working or living location

– residency issues

– the need for high sums insured or a more bespoke policy to support Inheritance Planning objectives

 

Sometimes insurers may decline to cover you for combination of reasons such as age, health and activity.

If you have been declined for whatever reason(s) as above and Pulse may be able to help. We can find often cover when others decline subject to a minimum sum insured of £25,000.
