Independent Marine Insurance Specialists

Built around boats.
Connected to the world.

As independent marine insurance specialist, Be Protected Yachting supports boat owners, yacht managers and operators navigating across borders.

From our beginnings insuring vessels in Indonesia to accessing marine insurance markets worldwide, our approach has remained the same: understand the boat first, then find the right market to protect it.
ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE

Same passion. A wider horizon.

OUR STORY

From Indonesian waters to worldwide navigation

Be Protected Yachting did not begin as a separate insurance business. It began with a simple need from our clients.

Through Be Protected Indonesia, we started assisting owners looking to insure Indonesian flagged boats navigating throughout the Indonesian archipelago.

What began with a small number of marine risks quickly developed into something much broader.

We started receiving requests for vessels with different profiles, different ownership structures, different flags and increasingly international cruising areas.

Owners were no longer asking us only about Indonesia. Their boats were navigating across Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean, the Pacific and beyond.

Marine insurance is international by nature.

 

A boat can be registered in one country, owned through a company in another, managed somewhere else and navigate through several jurisdictions during the same year.

It became clear that our marine activity needed a dedicated structure built around that reality.

 

In 2026, Be Protected Yachting was created as the specialist international marine insurance division of Be Protected Group.

Built from the experience developed through Be Protected Indonesia, BPY combines marine insurance expertise, independent advice and access to insurance markets across multiple jurisdictions.

 

Today, our approach combines the expertise of a marine insurance specialist with an international understanding of yacht ownership, navigation and complex maritime risks.

 

Our reach has evolved. Our philosophy has not.

OUR APPROACH

We start with your boat

No two boats have exactly the same risk profile.

Vessel type, value, age, flag, ownership structure, usage, navigation area, crew and claims history can completely change the insurance solutions available to an owner.

 

That is why we do not begin with an insurer or a product catalogue.

We begin by understanding your boat, how it is owned, how it is used and where it navigates.

 

With the guidance of a marine insurance specialist, we then identify the insurance markets and coverage structures that are most appropriate for your risk.

 

Our objective is to provide independent, tailored advice that helps you make informed decisions and protect your boat with confidence.

HOW IT WORKS • BESPOKE ADVISORY PROTOCOL

Marine insurance made simple

We strip away opaque clauses, unbundled warranties, and slow claims processing. Your vessel receives direct syndicate advocacy from initial valuation to ocean passage.

Advisory

We take the time to understand your boat, ownership structure, usage, navigation area, and insurance requirements before making any recommendation.

Marine placement

We identify and approach the insurance markets most suited to your vessel and risk profile, rather than trying to fit your boat into a predetermined product.

Policy management

From quotations and underwriting requirements to policy documents, amendments, and renewals, our team coordinates the process throughout the life of your policy.

Claims support

When something happens, we remain involved. Our team assists with communication, documentation, and coordination so you are not left dealing with underwriters alone.

Global by nature

Your boat moves.Your insurance has to follow.

A boat rarely fits neatly within one border.

Its flag, ownership, management, crew, usage and navigation can involve several countries and different regulatory environments.

That is why marine insurance often requires access to more than one market. Be Protected Yachting works across local and international insurance markets to identify the appropriate capacity for each risk.

From privately owned boats and sailing yachts to charter vessels and larger motor yachts, we look beyond geography to find insurance solutions that reflect how and where the boat actually operates.

BUILT FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF BOATS
