NABO members can now obtain a 7.5% discount on their boat insurance through specialist brokers CETA Insurance.

CETA works with a panel of insurers including Haven, Navigators & General, Towergate, AIG and Sompo Canopius, so there is a considerable breadth of options available. We cannot guarantee that every member’s requirements can be met but Council believes this arrangement with CETA provides an excellent additional benefit for NABO members and hopes it will provide a further incentive for more boat owners to join the organisation.

What to do

For a new quotation, especially if your needs are a little unusual, call CETA on 01608 647601and speak to a specialist broker. Remember to say that you are a member of NABO in order to obtain your discount, and have your membership number to hand.

Alternatively, log onto http://ceturl.com/ymz6j , complete the questionnaire, choose the option which best suits your needs (bearing in mind these quotes are pre-discount) and continue until you get to the ‘shopping basket’ page, where you will be asked for a promotional code. Type in ‘NABO’, click on ‘recalculate’, and at this point your 7.5% discount will be deducted. There is no committment up to this point; if you wish to proceed and take out a policy, click ‘next’ for the payment page. If you have any queries, please don’t hesitate to telephone CETA instead.

If you are already insured through CETA, mention your NABO membership number and you will be offered the discount at your next renewal.

Off to a flying start

The first NABO member to apply for a quote, Peter Gregory, said: “The renewal notice for our shared narrowboat came through with a premium of £206.71.  CETA arranged the same levels of cover, with the same excess, for less and, and our NABO discount brought the total down to £123.42.”

The next two members who took out a policy with CETA each saved nearly £50.
