Barge-Mounted Crane Insurance
Covers the barge, the crane on it, and the crew running it.
Can y’all handle it?
Yes sir.
- Hull & machinery for the barge

New to the business?
Just getting started? That’s fine by us. We insure new contractors. No loss history? No problem. You’ll sign a No Known Loss letter and we’ll go from there.
Already insured and looking around?
Send us 3-5 years of loss runs and your current policy or dec pages. We’ll shop it around for you, with quicker COIs and calls returned.
How much down?
We offer premium finance.
How fast can I get a COI?
If you’re new with us, we’ll gather your info, fill out the application, get it quoted, and go over it with you. Most quotes take about 4 to 5 days. Some come back quicker and some take a little longer. Once you’re covered, you’ll get COIs the same business day you ask.
Whether a barge counts as a ‘vessel’ or a worker counts as a ‘seaman’ is a legal call made on the facts. The policy wording decides what’s covered.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a hull policy cover the crane on my barge?
Not necessarily. Some hull policies leave out or limit equipment on deck, and some crane policies stop while the crane’s on the water. Both have to be read together.
