Worth knowing
Picton Boats; cover, cost and conditions
Picton built light, fast sports boats that are run with surprisingly powerful engines for their size. It is precisely this combination that determines the premium: it is not the value of the hull that decides but the engine output in kW. A more powerful engine fitted later without notification is the classic point of dispute in a claim.
Anyone who goes fast should use the kill switch with its lanyard. On small boats, going overboard at full speed is the case that turns damage to property into personal injury. Our personal accident cover applies in Premium to everyone on board, and the lanyard costs nothing.
