What connects a stormy sea with a nice cup of tea?
One dark and stormy night, our client’s ship sustained a damaged hull while being towed through turbulent waters. It was a perilous situation, but thankfully our marine claims team is on hand day and night, with all the in-house know-how to fix this kind of emergency. Our expert engineer contacted the ship owners, remotely assessed the damage, and worked with our claims manager to organise a tug to get the ship to safety. Soon enough, the storm abated, the claim was swiftly resolved, and everyone relaxed with a nice cup of tea. Once again, everything was shipshape, Beazley fashion.
Beazley ranks as one of the world’s leading marine insurers, with a highly experienced global team that participates in the insurance of approximately 20% of the world’s ocean-going tonnage.
