Insurance (out of water and underwater)

[Rui Guerra]

Hi all,

I've bought recently a complete setup RED MG and a housing to my work. Even though the housing I have is VERY GOOD (with vacuum system and leak alarm) the risk is always there when I'm diving with my RED.
Besides the potencial flood risk, I would like to have some peace of mine regarding break, loose, theft, etc, while I use the camera alone on land.

So I'm looking for a good insurance plan that doesn't ruin me in the first year and that are effective supporting their clients in case something bad happens.
I live in Portugal, so maybe some US based companies do not apply...?! Any advice?

How about renting the camera, does your insurance cover it?

What are your main route of action to secure your investment in a RED camera (and a housing, if you are diving with it)?
How much have you secured and how much do you pay/year? Is it worth?

Thanks!

Contact a local broker. All my gear was pretty easy to insure worldwide and includes underwater work. I pay roughly $1700.00 for $100K of gear
