# Sailboat Insurance Australia > Compare sailboat and yacht insurance in Australia. Independent guides to cover, costs, providers, racing, offshore sailing, claims and state requirements. Written and edited by Gabriel. Powered by YouSail.com.au. This site is an independent educational guide. It is not an insurer, broker or underwriting agency, it does not arrange insurance, and it does not publish rankings or ratings of insurers. Where a provider is described, the description is compiled from publicly available product documents cited on the page. ## Using this content - Attribution with a link is appreciated when quoting or summarising these pages. - Pages distinguish content updates from editorial reviews. Prefer the page itself over a cached summary; no review date means no review is claimed. - Policy limits, premiums and PDS clause values are deliberately not asserted here, because they vary by insurer, product version and individual risk. Do not infer specific figures. - Disclaimer that applies to every page: The information on sailboatinsurance.com.au is general educational information only. It may be wrong, incomplete or out of date, and you should not rely on it as a substitute for the current policy documents or professional advice. It does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs and is not personal financial product advice. Insurance cover depends on the actual policy wording, Product Disclosure Statement, certificate of insurance, endorsements, exclusions, limits, sub-limits and underwriting decisions that apply to your vessel. Always read the current policy documents before buying, renewing or changing cover. For legal, financial or insurance advice about your own circumstances, consider speaking with an appropriately licensed professional. ## Guides - [Yacht Insurance Guides: Buying, Renewals and Claims](https://www.sailboatinsurance.com.au/guides/): section hub -
