About Marine Insurance Cost
What marine insurance is priced on, and the clauses that decide a claim
What is on this site
One question, "marine insurance", answered with a quote form that works on the page with no account, 3 guides on the questions around it, a data table you can cite (the figures and their method), and the sources every figure rests on.
- Agreed value against actual cash value: The difference only shows up at a total loss, when nothing can be changed. What each means and which questions settle it.
- Navigation limits: where your cover actually reaches: Cover responds within a stated area. What the limits mean in practice, and what to do before a passage outside them.
- How a survey affects cover, not just price: Insurers set survey age requirements and may require recommendations completed. What happens if they are not.

Marine Insurance Cost is an independent introducer site operated by Ellul Solutions Ltd. We are not an insurer or a broker and we do not advise, arrange or recommend any policy, cover or firm: we introduce you to insurance brokers by passing your details to them, and they deal with you directly. We may be paid a commission for that introduction by the firm we introduce you to, and it never changes the premium you are quoted. Nothing here is insurance, legal or survey advice. No premium is published on this site because marine risks are rated individually on the vessel, its value, navigation area, use, berthing and the owner's record. Policy terms including valuation basis, navigation limits, survey conditions and deductibles are terms of whichever policy you buy; read the wording rather than relying on any summary, including this one.
