Before you set sail, it's important to understand what's covered during your charter. Below is a breakdown of the three key insurance and security areas that apply to all Cumberland Charter Yachts bookings.
Travel insurance covers you if you need to cancel your trip for a specified reason before you depart. You'll be reimbursed for pre-paid, non-refundable expenses in the event of sickness, injury or death of yourself, a family member or travelling companion.
A non-refundable damage waiver is charged to cover minor loss or accidental damage to the vessel or its inventory. All vessels are insured to protect the owner against loss or damage to the vessel and its equipment.
Please be aware that any structural damage or damage causing the vessel to be unseaworthy while on charter will require the vessel to be returned to base for assessment and repair. This may result in termination of the charter with no reimbursement of charter fees.
On the morning of your departure, we require a valid credit or debit card for a pre-authorisation of $3,000. This acts as a security deposit covering potential grounding or damage incidents during your charter.
If you're unsure about the damage waiver or bond requirements before your charter, our team is happy to help. Fill in the form and we'll be in touch shortly.
