Addept Insurance strikes deal to expand marine legal protection book

Addept Insurance Services has partnered with sail and motor yacht insurance provider Pantaenius UK.

The partnership will expand the Addept Insurance’s waypoint specialist marine legal protection insurance book, by providing a new scheme for Pantaenius UK.

Launched in 2025, the waypoint product covers legal costs to recover uninsured losses, pursue personal injury claims, pursue or defend a legal action following a breach of a contract or defend a criminal offence. 

Andy Crick, executive director at Pantaenius UK, said: “Legal expenses insurance is an important add-on product for us.

“The Addept Insurance team bring many years of experience and a clear understanding of the marine legal expenses insurance needs of boat owners. Their flexibility, customer centred and commercial approach to product design and distribution deliver our customers a high quality product at a competitive price point.” 

Milestone

Richard Finan, managing director at Addept Insurance, added: “Our partnership with Pantaenius UK is an important milestone for the business and the waypoint solution.

“We set out to address the narrowing of cover and capacity options we see in the current marine legal expenses market. The market’s response to the solution and our drive to simplify administration processes for brokers has resulted in strong growth.”
