Narrow boat holiday insurance

Hi all,

My wife, two babies, and I are going on a narrowboat holiday in the UK next week. I assume it would be best to have some form of travel insurance, in case of loss of possessions, injuries, hishaps with the boat or otherwise, etc.

Would a "normal" travel insurance policy cover a holiday on a narrowboat?

Can anyone recommend a suitable provider?

Thanks,
Richard

p.s. thankfully the babies can't crawl yet, so they should be safe on board!

    Normal travel insurance should be sufficient though all travel insurance is fairly light on cover for possessions - often this is covered by home insurance - and "injury" is only covered in terms of medical expenses or "loss of limb" type PA. Given you are in the UK the NHS would provide the medical cover and so medical expenses are not relevant.
