  • Third-party is the licence job

    CRT currently requires third-party insurance before a boat licence. EA waters are a separate registration. Confirm the live wording with the navigation authority that issues your licence.

  • Hull, fire and theft

    Ask how inland incidents, lock damage, and theft from a home mooring are treated. This page does not price those modules.

  • Describe where you cruise

    List the canals and rivers you use, your home mooring if you have one, and any planned journeys beyond inland waters. Ask the specialist to confirm the permitted cruising area and exclusions in writing.
