Expat Marine Secures Employee Compensation Insurance for yacht crew in Hong Kong

Hong Kong law requires all yachts with the Hong Kong flag or licenced in Hong Kong to carry Employee Compensation Insurance for any paid crew. Superyachts usually carry separate P&I insurance and this is catered for within this cover but if yachts retain the liability cover within the Hull and Machinery insurances this is an area usually specifically excluded. Expat Marine has secured the availability of this cover from approved insurers in Hong Kong and is able to help yachts that require it.
