Owning a superyacht comes with a risk profile most high-net-worth families never fully anticipate, and the gaps tend to surface long after the purchase is final.

Rob Carron of Aon Private Risk Management joins Risk Ready to unpack the exposures unique to luxury yacht and superyacht ownership, drawing on his work advising clients through the operational and liability realities of life on the water.

The conversation covers crew liability and the employment risks that come with running a yacht, chartering exposures for owners who lease out their vessels, and how the fast-growing superyacht market is outpacing many owners' understanding of what their coverage actually protects.

Advisors will walk away with a clearer picture of where standard high-net-worth programs fall short for yacht owners and what questions to ask clients before a coverage gap becomes a claim.
