Club Profile

The Shipowners’ Club is a marine liability insurer offering P&I, Legal Assistance and Defence cover and associated insurance to small and specialist vessel owners across the world.

Building on over 150 years of experience in providing P&I insurance, we work closely with our Members and their brokers to provide tailor-made insurance solutions. As part of a mutual association, our Members share their liabilities with other owners of small and specialist vessels who face similar risks. The wide spread of membership across different vessel sectors and geographical areas brings stability to the Club as a whole. We insure the following vessel types - barge, dry cargo, fishing, harbour, offshore, passenger, tanker and yacht.

The Club is a member of the International Group of P&I Clubs www.igpandi.org which represents over 90% of the world's ocean-going tonnage. As a member of the International Group, we are able to provide very high limits of insurance cover if required.

With branches in London, Singapore and Vancouver, our strategy is to provide a truly global service for our Members and their brokers, underpinned by a comprehensive understanding of local conditions.
