Grenada Hurricane IVAN Within 24 hours the Pantaenius team had started the management of claims, salvage and the repair of over 100 yachts. Fire damage caused a total loss of the yacht Honey Money and a substantial partial claim on the yacht alongside. The 30m yacht hit rocks at full speed. A comprehensive, complicated survey of the whole hull structure was necessary as a result of the enormous impact. The proof of good insurance is in good claims handling.
