Sorry Ratty, i have to disagree with you there, Noble are just awesome.  The Claim process is super easy with no hassle.  I had 2 claims in 2 weeks on my 300 and they didn't make a fuss!!  There must be underlying factors as to why you had an issue with them.  Are you sure it wasn't the repairer that you were waiting on ??  Remember that on some policies things like sails and masts if they are over 3 years old they wont replace new for old.

Nonle are the top bannana

2claims in 2weeks? i bet they loved you. what did you claim for besides the sail and boom? and how much did your premium increase by? i am about to make another claim for a new boom and either a new sail or repair of 3panels of my rs300 sail (courtesy of the rescue boat driving over it)

i also claimed for a new mast in september and they were great about it. if its a genuine claim then noble are the best. i really cant reccomend them enough. they also allow you one claim without the premium increasing next year.

Well the sail and boom where both seperate claims Tom, the sail i capsized onto the bow of an Albacore, and the boom exploded! lol well it wasn't quite so dramatic, i let the kicker off coming a shore in a nice f4-5 as i dumped the main there was a bange and the boom split up the middle it was well weird, noble were abosolutly fine with it even though i was fairly appologetic!  To be honest its one of the reasons i sold the 300, i seemed to be making more claims then anything i have sailed before and i'm not into that! I just like sailing.

the boom just snapped in a big gust with a huge BANG. the main was done when the resuce boat kindly drove over my sail.  

they also managed to drive over my halyard and get that around the prop. i had warned them about both and shouted to stay away but never mind  i also have an irrational fear of powerboats when im in the water as one guy at school got his knee cut open by a prop (1 cm more and his kneecap would have been destroyed). the call to stay away until i was ready was more from fear than anything else as the vibrations of the engine i could feel through the water sent me into a panic.
