Hull & MachineryLiability Insurance / P&ILoss of Hire InsuranceWar Risks InsuranceAdditional- / Special Insurance


Loss of Hire Insurance is considered as one of the most important insurances for shipping-companies and is conducive for them to ensure a stable financial year. Georg Duncker is able to offer this insurance for the blue-water business as well as for the brown-water business on very favourable terms. The advantages of the Loss of Hire insurance are very often underestimated as are the financial repercussions, which could occur in consequence of an Hull & Machinery claim. Nearly every Hull & Machinery damage also causes unemployment for the vessel during the time of the repair. During this time the vessel can be "off hire" with no earnings being possible in this time. Nevertheless the daily costs have to be paid and beyond this, the actual loss of time for the vessel can be higher than the time actually needed for the repair. This occurs when the delivery of replacement parts takes a long time or the vessel has to be moved to a far-away/distant shipyard.

Thus Loss of Hire periods, which are caused by an Hull & Machinery claim can be covered by a Loss of Hire Insurance whereby the insured will be indemnified for the financial loss he has suffered.

One of our experts is looking forward to develop a tailor-made cover for you.
