Digest #4717 Thu Dec 2 17:15:47 1993 Date: Thu, 02 Dec 93 14:46:42 GMT From: Wookey Subject: Re: Cavers Digest #4716 (Wed Dec 1 22:41:03 1993) David london - BCRA do still run expedition insurance:- It is generally pretty good (having paid up for all the accidents CUCC have had on expo in the last 6 years: one car crash, one broken leg, one broken pelvis, one perforated eardrum). You only get 80% for gear costs that are anything to do with cars (crashes, thefts). There were restrictions about going to the US & Canada, but I think cover is now available there for a small extra premium. Not sure if it is availbale to non UK nationals, although our Irishman was insured last year so it must be possible. It is cheaper if you are a BCRA member (about 10%). You also get bulk discount (5%) for buying more than #500 of insurance in one go, so do the expo as a job lot.
