Small business owners want a comprehensive policy that encompasses multiple coverages, said Don Harrell, senior vice president of LIU marine. They face the same marine liability and property risks as larger companies and need to have in place the same protections.

LIU Marine BOP coverage includes marine general liability; hull and protection & indemnity; marine excess liability; and mobile equipment\/tools. Classes eligible for coverage are: ship repairer\/ship builder, marina operator, marine construction, marine artisan, marine contractors, consultant\/inspections, and scientific\/research\/educational. <\/p>\n
LIU Marine provides a broad range of insurance products that include Ocean and Project Cargo, Marine Liabilities, Marine Builders Risk and Hull and Machinery and Yachts. LIUs unique approach employs a team of local underwriters, risk engineers and marine claims specialists. Because the entire team is fully integrated into the insurance process, clients get faster service and a program that leads to a reduction in loss and best claims outcome. <\/p>\n
