If you are involved in or have assisted someone who has suffered an accident or injury, please complete the claim form as soon as possible while the details are still fresh in your mind.
This will assist PaddleNSW and our Insurers to properly consider the event details.
Category 2 member clubs: PaddleNSW provides Public Liability, and Association Liability insurance. Copies of the insurance policy are available for clubs organising sanctioned events, by contacting PaddleNSW. It is important to recognise that this insurance is available only where all participants in club organised events are members of PaddleNSW. ‘Trial’ paddles with clubs do not include activities described as ‘events’, so insurance is available for participants while they are in the direct supervision of club members.
PaddleNSW Boat Insurance
PaddleNSW is currently negotiating a bulk property (boat) insurance package for members.
You will now be able to insure your boat for theft or damage ANYWHERE.
Because the policy is being organised through PNSW, the insurers are able to drastically reduce the cost of insurance.
This is how it will work:
· We need expressions of interest for at least 200 boat policies. Please let us know how many boats you would like to insure. Hit this email link and type the number of boats you want to insure in the subject line.
· You will be offered an insurance option either on your membership application,
or as a separate on-
· You will nominate the current value of each boat, and pay a premium according to that value, to the closest $1000.00. Eg: A boat valued at $3000.00 will cost around $105.00 to insure for one year.
· PaddleNSW will assemble a minimum of 200 policies for the offer to be accepted by the insurance company
· The insurance is only available for private use; commercial use is not covered.
· Each policy is per boat, and you can insure more than one boat.
· You will need to supply details and a photo of the boat, and will most likely be given an identifying sticker by the insurance company.
· Your boat is insured at market value, but the most you will receive is the sum insured stated in the Policy Schedule.
· If you sell your boat and purchase an equivalent boat, that boat will be insured under the existing policy.
· Your boat is not insured if it is not kept in secured storage while on your property.
· Boats less than one year old will be replaced with a new equivalent boat where possible.
· You may be required to pay an excess of around $100.00, which will be shown on your policy.
Details of the insurance policy will be emailed to those expressing interest in this insurance. An expression of interest does not oblige you to proceed with the insurance policy.
