Across the U.S., demand for specialist Inland Marine coverage is growing, driven by infrastructure investment and industrial expansion. Equipment is working harder and across more job sites. But while exposure has evolved, much of the Inland Marine market has not kept up.
Middle market contractors, equipment dealers, and industrial operators increasingly find themselves underserved, caught between small business solutions that lack flexibility and large account platforms that lack appetite.
Rokstone Marine is filling that gap. Backed by QBE, we are launching a specialized Inland Marine program delivering USD 10,000,000 in capacity, purpose-built for equipment-driven industries operating across multiple geographies.
Built for Equipment-Driven Risk
This program is a modern, flexible Inland Marine suite designed specifically for:
Small and mid-sized contractors
Equipment dealers and rental operations
Industrial operators with mobile assets
Mike Nukk, Head of Rokstone Marine, said, “This partnership significantly strengthens our ability to scale, diversify, and introduce more sophisticated solutions to the market.” He continued, “This digitally enabled program delivers fast, flexible, specialty coverage for a segment that urgently needs it.”
Businesses that rely on equipment to generate revenue often do not operate in a single location, and their coverage should not either. Rokstone Marine offers a comprehensive solution built around how equipment moves, works, and generates income. Our core product pillars include:
Contractors Equipment
Commercial Output Policy (COP)
Equipment Sales and Rental
Ancillary Inland Marine coverage, including:
- Installation floaters
- Riggers liability
- Transit and cargo
- Valuable papers and records
- Warehouseman’s legal liability
Backed by Strength
With the addition of QBE, Rokstone Marine’s total Marine capacity now stands at USD 60 million, supported by a diversified, top-tier carrier panel, including Allianz (USD 25m), QBE (USD 10m), and Lloyd’s of London (USD 25m).
This capacity scope provides financial strength, claims certainty, and long-term stability, while enabling larger line sizes and expanded appetite. For brokers, that means increased confidence in placement and consistency in execution.
Our partnership with QBE reflects our shared ambition - built on proven delegated authority expertise, strong claims capability, financial strength, and global scale. With a clear appetite for scalable niche growth and alignment with specialty distribution, we are creating a platform designed for sustained growth.
