I decided against them. I did not find anyone who had made a claim. I did find one cruising friend who had them. Their
price was decent. They double the deductible on
lightning hits, which I really didn't like as a
lightning hit and total loss are the two main incidents I want to insure against . Ended up with a Pantenius US policy at around the same percent as your quote.
We are planning on crossing this year too. If you want to stay insured it seems like the
Indian Ocean is too expensive to stick around long.
