‘Pantaenius Sail and Motor Yacht Insurance’ opens a new office in Australia

James MacPhail is the managing director of the new Pantaenius office in Sydney. He is a passionate yachtsman with strong market knowledge in the Australian yachting scene. Pantaenius has been insuring yachts, and resolving their claims, around the world for more than 40 years.

MacPhail commented, “Owners expect an insurance cover to be complete and have no hidden or ambiguous clauses.  Such clauses include an ‘Agreed Fixed Value’. Pantaenius is well-known for its fixed value policy that has set new standards in the water sports sector.  We agree a fixed sum insured, which is reimbursed in full for total loss, rather than the current market value as is the case with many other yacht insurers. Furthermore, our clients can expect to be supported in the unfortunate event of a claim and to receive payment as soon as the claim is properly verified.”

The company has an international network of over 35,000 partners.

The international teams in the United Kingdom, Mediterranean, Scandinavia, Austria, America and most recently, Australia provide local advice and services in several national languages.  For further information visit, www.pantaenius.com.au.
