Peter,
SailorSnook joined in 2009 and only ever posted twice (2009 and 2013). I suppose he might be due to post again sometime soon.
It would be worth sending him a PM by clicking on his name above the initial message and choosing Private Message. You might find that this triggers an email notification to his own email and could be quicker than waiting for him to spot your post.
I see that his name was Malcolm Snook and he did have a web-site (www.sailorsnook.com). Unfortunately, that appears to be defunct and may be a dead end. I think that the website was in use up to March 2016 and is no longer registered. I don't think that the site held much detailed information.
I did note that there was an icon relating to "Land Sea Sky World Peace Foundation" and I see that there's a Malcolm Snook on Twitter (Author, pacifist and sailor). It would be worth using Twitter as an other avenue.
Sorry I can't be of more help.
Yes. 07812192832. Or 01752872123 Peter Telford.
So do anyone think there is a real insurance company behind Edward William or is it a total scam?
I am in a particular situation and after about 60 hours of search trough about 40 insurers, I have very little options left. Either them or pay another insurer about 4% of vessel value every year (the norm being around 0.7%). So I will probably take up insurance with Edward William, hope it is a case of just seing the wrong side of things on the internet...

It seems weird that someone would make a first post to the effect that they will risk using this company. The rest of the post doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the company.
I can't think of any reason to even give this company a try.
Unless a vested interest?
You might, specially if you were voyaging. I did for a couple of years, fully aware of Northern Reef/Edward Williams reputation. For the price - a fraction of any reputable company, no survey required, and very little restriction on destination or type of use - you get an authentic looking document which can be waved at those marinas, and those countries, which insist on yacht insurance.It seems weird that someone would make a first post to the effect that they will risk using this company.

Perhaps too, at the back of my mind, was that if they were so tricky with their own customers, they would serve equally to mire any third-party claim against me.
I think you'll find Photoshop is cheaper still if you only want a piece of paper offering no protection against risk at all.
But that's fraud. Obviously none of us here would have any truck with that!I think you'll find Photoshop is cheaper still if you only want a piece of paper offering no protection against risk at all.

Beat me to it, I was going to offer a very impressive document for only £50 and 100% guarantee not to pay up under any circumstances. No nagging doubt about wasting your money, all up front about that part.
....... I have never seen anyone say that Northern Reef have actually paid out, so why risk it? Bite the bullet and pay for insurance you can trust.
