Marine Hull & Machinery

Hermann Firgau underwrites marine hull insurance on all internationally recognised insurance conditions, for example German ADS/DTV Clauses, the Nordic Marine Insurance Plan, the English Institute Hull Clauses or the American Institute Clauses.
We specialise in creating tailor-made coverage concepts to meet the exceptional requirements of our clients. In addition to protection against physical damage to the vessel, its machinery, equipment and accessories, marine hull insurance also covers the policyholder‘s collision liability arising from contact with another vessel or liability in connection with impact with fixed or floating objects.
This insurance also covers the policyholder‘s legal and labour costs, salvage costs and general average costs.
We provide insurance cover for a wide range of commercial and specialised vessels, including:
- General cargo vessels
- Container ships
- Bulk vessels
- Tankers
- Passenger and cruise ships
- Tugs, towboats and specialised offshore vessels
- Mega Yachts
- Fishing vessels of all kinds
Based on our many years of experience, we offer international maritime players and their insurance brokers access to the German insurance market, which is characterised by its reliability and high efficiency.
