For information, below are the OGA insurance documents.

We are insured for claims of up to £5million, including claims from third parties, 
Member to Member and Member to an Officer, even if we are found to be
negligent. We also have Legal Expenses Insurance for up to £250 000.
Our insurer has confirmed we are covered for claims of bodily injury,
loss of or damage to property and damage to vessels, even if resulting from our
negligence.

Regarding question to our insurer about non-members at events being
covered by our insurance the reply was: - "If you are arranging an
event and the members friends or family will be attend to spectate, we
would not expect you to sign in all spectators. On the RYA scheme we
recognise that this type of activity will generate additional footfall
and should an incident occur involving spectator, provided negligence
could be proven and full version of events can be provided by both
parties, claim could be made."

Regarding question to our insurer regarding what happens if we change
from an Unincorporated Association to Limited Liability body the
reply was: - "Regardless of the "type" of organisation, cover will be
provided under the name of Old Gaffers Association. This process will
therefore not have any bearing on the insurance. For good order, the
insured title may need to be updated to include "incorporating/
limited"........."
