I have always found Noble to be absolutely excellent.

Noble were extremely good when I snapped my mast. Only good things to say about them. ------------- Merlin rocket 1137 OK 2049 Can be seen at http://www.wellandyachtclub.co.uk/ - WYC |

I deal with noble quite a lot doing insurance repairs at work and they're always very good, we normally have the go ahead to reapir/make a new sail within a few hours, its rare that it takes more than 1 or 2 working days for noble to decide if we should repair something or not. ------------- |

Can find nothing but good to say about Noble, and given my normally negative views on insurance that's a real compliment to them. ------------- http://www.wilsoniansc.org.uk" rel="nofollow - Wilsonian SC http://www.3000class.org.uk" rel="nofollow - 3000 Class |

They have always been excellent for us. They are the only insurance company that I have ever dealt with that do what you expect an insurance company to do, quickly and efficiently. Ian |

I had on the whole had a good experience from Noble. I did have a slightly tricky claim a few years back where they wanted to write my Laser hull off as opposed to repair it and pay me a lump sum (as they said it was not eligable for the new for old because it was written off as opposed to damaged beyond repair). The amount offered would not have got me a boat in the condition of the one that was in the reapir shop. After a couple of phone calls and some negotiations they agreed to repair the hull which came back from Laser looking really good (on the underside at least). ------------- Paul ---------------------- D-Zero GBR 74 |

Just thought i should put something on here about the service i got from noble marine. I broke my vareo mast on saturday sent the email yesterday to them with the online claim form by the time i got home from work last night i had another email asking for pics of the broken mast which i duly sent back got an email this morning saying to go ahead and order a new one as they will pay out for it. Now how about that for excellent service i was very impressed by how fast they sorted it mny thanks to phil at noble for this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ------------- Retired now after 35 seasons in a row and time for a rest. 2004 national champ Laser5000 2007,2010,National Champ Rs Vareo |

I had exactly the same thing. Broken boom and shredded main on my 300. Rang noble the next day telling them what happened. They told me to order a new boom (paid my £50 excess straight to LDC) and the next day a courier would come to pick up my sail. I got the sail back 2 weeks later (took so long because they had to wait for the material unique to 300 sails) and it had 3 new panels. The person who bought the boat didn't even notice the repair until I pointed it out to him. Noble marine are absolutely excellent. Nothing but praise for them here. ------------- Restoring Firefly 517 |

All my boats are insured with Noble, even though they aren't always the cheapest. They have always been great. But but look, I have just read Jayvee's very first post in which he/she claimed, at 4.28 this morning, to have written essays for Noble for the internet. I didn't know marine insurance companies required essays!! How diversely talented jayvee must be. A spammer? Surely not! ------------- the same, but different... |

Just had another great bit of service from Noble Marine. Phoned them up to change my policy from an RS300 to an old firefly. Took me a whole 3 and half minutes on the phone to change over and rather than charging me to change boats, I was advised that I might be due a refund!
Keep up the good work Noble. ------------- Restoring Firefly 517 |
