Travel Insurance help;

[Uncas]

I am having trouble finding travel and health insurance for a driven boar Monteria in Portugal,
So far the B.A.S.C. website is not working ( Aim Ins ) at least for me!
So any help I can get from you chaps would be appreciated,older Yorkshire person (not t'internet savvy).
Regards,

Phone BASC and they will give you the required contact details. I wasted a lot of time looking for cover abroad, bizarrely not thinking of BASC! Simple travel policy which specifically includes hunting and shooting.
Its a laugh I looked at a number of extreme sports travel providers; jump out a plane, dive into the depths with sharks or walk thru Afghanistan - all no problem. But want to take a gun hunting - much too risky, coverage declined!

Join the NRA UK and you will get cover for your firearms and public liability

Phoned BASC they say members have third party liability cover which is worldwide but no health repatriation etc. Put me through to their brokers who had no one available. Still waiting a call back !
I've used NFU (and do all my farm & property with them). I get a good level of cover for hunting safaris in Africa for a month at a cost of about £75. But there's 72 pages in the schedule !!

Yes BASC third party cover worldwide no health repatriation

Here you go, True Traveller Insurance for Backpackers and Adventure Travellers
They will not cover shooting activities, but they did cover me whilst i was hunting, i.e any accident on my travels even when hunting for Elk in Montana up mountains, including repatriation etc
My gun and equipment was covered by my household insurance, even though they took a while to find out when i phoned them.
Cheers

Got the call back today. It would be around £125 for 4 weeks cover 60 y o in South Africa medical delays repatriation etc but not baggage & belongings. So NFU is cheaper for me but I do several £000's of business already with them.
Richard - sounds like you're covered for everything except the gun blowing up when pulling the trigger.
